To learn The Flaming Lips - (from the Fight Test EP) Fight Test chords, begin by getting comfortable with these sequence: A, F#m, E, A, D, E, A and C#m. A strategic approach would be to train at 81 BPM initially, and then accelerate to the song's tempo of 164. With an eye on the song's key A Major, set the capo that best suits your vocal range.
