Learning To Fly

intro: F--C-- Am -- G---(4x)

F -------- C----- Am ---G --- F ---C --Am -- G
1) Well I started out, ----------------- down a dirty road ------------
2) And the sun went down, ---------- as I crossed the hill --------
3) Well the good ol’ days, ---------- may not return ------
4) Well some say life ------- will beat you down,---------
5) So I started out, --------- for God knows where ------

F -------- C----- Am ---G --- F ---C --Am -- G
1) Started out ----------------------- all alone --------------------
2) As the town lit up,--------- the world got still -------------
3) And the rocks may melt --------- and the sea may burn --------
4) Break your heart ---------------- steal your crown ----------
5) I guess I’ll know ----------------------- when I get there -----

chorus: F I’m learning to C fly, Am -- G
but I F ain’t got C wings Am -- G
F Coming C down Am -- G --- is the F hardest C thing

or: F I’m learning to C fly, Am -- G
F around the C clouds, Am -- G
F But what goes C up Am -- G -------------------------------- F must come C down
