Intro

F C Am G x4

(this is the same pattern throughout the whole song)

Verse 1

Well it started out,

Down a dirty road.

Started out,

All alone.

Verse 2

And the sun went down,

as I crossed the hill.

And the town lit up,

the world got still.

Refrain

I'm learning to fly,

but I aint got wings.

coming down,

is the hardest thing.

Verse 3

Well the "Good old days"

May not return.

And the rocks might melt,

and the sea may burn.

Verse 4

Well some say life,

will beat you down.

Break your heart,

steal your crown.

Verse 5

So start it out,

for God knows where.

I guess I'll know,

when I get there.

Refrain

I'm learning to fly,

Around the clouds,

What goes up,

Must come down.

I'm learning to fly,(learning to fly)

but I aint got wings.

is the hardest thing.

Must come down.
