LEARNING TO FLY
Pink Floyd
(Gilmour, Moore, Ezrin, Carin)
G A/G G Gmaj7 Em7 D
G A/G G Gmaj7
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Em7 D
Stretched to the point of no turning back
G A/G G Gmaj7
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Em7 D
Standing alone my senses reeled
G A/G G Gmaj7
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
Em7 D
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
C Em/B Am G
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
G A/G G Gmaj7
G A/G G Gmaj7
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Em7 D
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
G A/G G Gmaj7
No navigator to guide my way home
Em7 D
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
C Em/B Am G
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
F C
Condition grounded but determined to try
Em/B Am G
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
F Am7 D9 D
G
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
Em7
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
G
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Em7
Out of the corner of my watering eye
G
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Em7
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
C Em/B Am G
There's no sensation to compare with this
F C
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Em/B Am G
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
G A/G G Gmaj7 Em7 D
