Learning To Fly (acoustic guitar) chords Pink Floyd 1987 (A Momentary Lapse of Reason) * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_to_Fly_(Pink_Floyd_song) G G Em
G
Into the distance, a ribbon of black;

Em                                       D \ G
Stretched to the point of no turning back

  G
A flight of fancy on a windswept field;

Em                           D \ G
Standing alone my senses reel

  G
A fatal attraction is holding me fast;

Em                                       D \ G
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

C                           Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies;

F
Tongue-tied and twisted,

        C           D       G
Just an earth-bound misfit, I
G G Em
G
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings;

Em                                                  D \ G
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything

G
No navigator to find my way home;

Em                                D \ G
Unladen, empty and turned to stone

  C                      Am
A soul in tension that's learning to fly;

F                      C
Condition grounded but determined to try

C                           Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies;

F
Tongue-tied and twisted,

        C           D       G
Just an earth-bound misfit, I

G
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer;

Em                                            D \ G
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air

G               
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly;

Em                                  D \ G
Out of the corner of my watering eye

  G
A dream unthreatened by the morning light;

Em                                                      D \ G
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

        C                  Am
There's no sensation to compare with this;

F                      C
Suspended animation, a state of bliss

C                           Am
Can't keep my mind from the circling sky;

F
Tongue-tied and twisted,

        C           D       G
Just an earth-bound misfit, I
