Rodney Crowell – Still learning how to fly
Intro – A – Asus – A – Asus
(verse 1)
The hour is early, the whole world is quiet,
A beautiful morning is about to ignite,
I’m ready for danger, I’m ready for a fight,
I”m ready for something to lift me up higher,
(chorus)
Life’s been good I guess,
My ragged ole heart’s been blessed,
With so much more than meets the eye,
I got a past I won’t soon forget,
You ain’t seen nothin yet,
I’m still learning how to fly,
(verse 2)
Yet your dreams die hard,
With these habits to break,
You can’t let down your gaurd,
When there’s so much at stake,
(verse 3)
I’m halfway to heaven,
Halfway to hell,
But I might throw a seven,
You never can tell,
(chorus)
Life’s been good it’s true,
When I’m feelin just like new,
The same old rules need not apply,
I’ve got a past full of sticks and stones,
And a good feelin in my bones,
I’m still learning how to fly,[D-D]
(bridge)
I wanna go faster[D-D],
I don’t wanna slow dow[A-A]n,
I don’t wanna get off of this merry-go-round[D-D],
I wanna be reckless[A-D],
I wanna be vain[A-A],
I wanna make love like a runnaway train[-],
Life’s been good I’ll say,
I’m ten thousand miles ahead,
The day I rest is the day I die,
I’ve got past like new broken wings,
But you ain’t seen anything,
I’m still learning how to fly,[-][-]
I’m still learning how to fly,
(outro – A – Asus – A – Asus – C#m – D – A)
