Learning To Fly (acoustic guitar) chords
Pink Floyd *

G  G Em

GInto the distance, a ribbon of black;
Em                                      D/GStretched to the point of no turning back
  GA flight of fancy on a windswept field;
Em                           D/GStanding alone my senses reel
  GA fatal attraction is holding me fast;
Em                                      D/CHow can I escape this irresistible grasp?

C                           AmCan't keep my eyes from the circling skies;
FTongue-tied and twisted,
        C           D       GJust an earth-bound misfit, I

G  G Em

GIce is forming on the tips of my wings;
Em                                                  D/GUnheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
G        No navigator to find my way home;
Em                                D/CUnladen, empty and turned to stone

  C                      AmA soul in tension that's learning to fly;
F                      CCondition grounded but determined to try
C                           AmCan't keep my eyes from the circling skies;
FTongue-tied and twisted,
        C           D       GJust an earth-bound misfit, I

GAbove the planet on a wing and a prayer;
Em                                            D/GMy grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
G               Across the clouds I see my shadow fly;
Em                                  D/GOut of the corner of my watering eye

  GA dream unthreatened by the morning light;
Em                                                      D/CCould blow this soul right through the roof of the night

        C                  AmThere's no sensation to compare with this;
F                      CSuspended animation, a state of bliss
C                           AmCan't keep my eyes from the circling skies;
FTongue-tied and twisted,
        C           D       GJust an earth-bound misfit, I
