[Verse]
F  1-2            C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4         F  1-2 C 3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4
Well I started out,                     down a dirty road
F 1-2    C 3-4  Am 1-2 G 3-4   F 1-2   C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4
Started out                     all alone
F 1-2              C 3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4         F 1-2       C 1-2    Am 1-2 G 3-4
And the sun went down,                    as I crossed the hill
F 1-2             C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4      F 1-2      C 3-4  Am 1-2 G 3-4
As the town lit up,                     the world got still
 
 
[Chorus]
F  1-2            C 3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4          F 1-2       C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4
I’m learning to fly,                      but I ain’t got wings
F 1-2     C 3-4   Am 1-2  G  3-4          F 1-2       C3-4   Am 1-2 G 3-4
Coming down                        is the hardest thing
 
 
[Verse]
F  1-2               C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4   F 1-2        C3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4
Well the good ol’ days,                      may not return
         F 1-2       C 3-4  Am 12  G 3-4           F 1-2    C  3-4 Am 1-2   G 3-4
And the rocks may melt                     and the sea may burn
 
 
[Chorus]
F  1-2           C 3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4   F 1-2              C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4
I’m learning to fly,                   but I ain’t got wings
F 1-2     C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4          F  1-2    C 3-4   Am  1-2 G 3-4
Coming down                       is the hardest thing

F  1-2           C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4   F  1-2      C 3-4  Am 1-2   G 3-4
Well some say life                   will beat you down,
F 1-2         C 3-4    Am 1-2  G 3-4   F  1-2        C  3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4
Break your heart,                     steal your crown
F 1-2           C  3-4 Am 1-2  G 3-4   F 1-2             C 3-4   Am 1-2   G 3-4
So I started out,                         for god knows where
F            C   Am  G   F          C   Am   G
I guess I’ll know        when I get there
 
 
[Chorus]
F 1-2             C 3-4  Am 1-2  G  3-4 F 1-2         C 3-4     Am 1-2  G 3-4
I’m learning to fly,                    around the clouds,
F  1-2           C 3-4  Am 1-2  G 3-4  F  1-2       C 3-4   Am 1-2  G 3-4
But what goes up                        must come down
