[Intro] F C Am G x4 [Verse 1]
        F       C     Am   G
Well, I started out,

       F     C     Am   G
down a dirty road.

F       C     Am   G
Started out,

F    C     Am   G
all alone.
[Verse 2]
        F        C     Am   G
And the sun went down,

     F           C     Am   G
as I crossed the hill.

        F        C    Am   G
And the town lit up,

    F         C     Am   G
the world got still.
[Chorus]
    F           C     Am   G
I'm learning to fly,

      F         C      Am   G
but I ain't got wings.

F      C     Am   G
Coming down,

       F       C      Am   G
is the hardest thing.
[Verse 3]
          F        C     Am   G
Well the "Good old days"

    F     C     Am   G
may not return.

        F           C     Am   G
And the rocks might melt,

        F         C   Am   G
and the sea may burn.
[Chorus]
    F           C     Am          G
I'm learning to fly, (learning to fly)

      F         C       Am          G
but I ain't got wings. (learning to fly)

F      C      Am          G
Coming down, (learning to fly)

       F       C       Am          G
is the hardest thing. (learning to fly)
G G [Solo] F C Am G x4 [Verse 4]
      F        C     Am   G
Well, some say life,

     F         C    Am   G
will beat you down.

F           C     Am   G
Break your heart,

F          C      Am   G
steal your crown.
[Verse 5]
     F       C    Am   G
So I started out,

    F         C     Am   G
for God knows where.

  F          C     Am   G
I guess I'll know,

     F       C     Am   G
when I get there.
[Chorus]
    F           C    Am   G
I'm learning to fly,

 F         C       Am   G
around the clouds,

F         C    Am          G
What goes up, (learning to fly)

F         C      Am   G
must come down.
G G [Instrumental] F C Am G x2 [Chorus]
    F           C     Am          G
I'm learning to fly, (learning to fly)

      F         C      Am   G
but I ain't got wings.

F      C     Am   G
Coming down,

       F       C      Am   G
is the hardest thing.

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

 F         C       Am   G
around the clouds,

F         C    Am          G
What goes up, (learning to fly)

F         C      Am   G
must come down.

         (learning to fly)

    F           C     Am          G
I'm learning to fly, (learning to fly)

F    C    Am          G
         (learning to fly)

F    C    Am          G
         (learning to fly)
