Standard (EADGBE)

If you still have trouble with the strumming just listen to the song.

So now to the song.

Intro

2 times

Verse 1

Well I 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

Chorus 1

I'm learning to fly

but I ain't 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

Chorus 1

Solo

just repeat the intro)

Verse 4

Well some say life

will beat you down

Break your heart

steal your crown

Verse 5

So I started out

for God knows where

I guess I'll know

when I get there

Chorus 2

I'm learning to fly

around the clouds

What goes up

must come down

Bridge

just repeat the intro)

Last Chorus:

I'm learning to fly

but I ain't got wings

Coming down

is the hardest thing

I'm learning to fly

around the clouds

What goes up

must come down

I'm learning to fly

I'm learning to fly

(end on )

And that should be that for Learning to Fly by Tom Petty.

One of these days I'll figure out that solo, but for now

it works as a great solo acoustic song. And once again, please rate.

-I hope you enjoy; my little droogies.
