Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4[Intro] F C Am G x4 (this is the same pattern throughout the whole song) [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 aint 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, F C Am G but I aint got wings. F C Am G coming down, F C Am G is the hardest thing. [Short Solo] Hold G for 8 then 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 start it 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, F C Am G Must come down. [Instrumental] Hold G for 8 then F C Am G x4 [Chorus] F C Am G I'm learning to fly,(learning to fly) F C Am G but I aint got wings. F C Am G coming down, F C Am G is the hardest thing. F C Am G 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. [Outro] F C Am G F C Am G I'm learning to fly,(learning to fly) (learning to fly) F C Am G F C Am G I'm learning to fly,(learning to fly) (learning to fly) Enjoy! -Nate Nypaver
