LEARNING TO FLY -       Pink Floyd
 
 
Intro:
G -     A/E – G/D -     (G) - Em –   D/F#      2x
 
 
 
G
    Into the distance 
A/E      G/D
      A      ribbon of black
G - Em
        Stretched to the point of no turning back
D/F# - G
          A flight of fancy 
A/E          G/D
      On a       windswept field
G - Em
         Standing alone my senses reel
D/F# - G
           A fatal attraction 
A/E      G/D
     Is      holding me fast
G        Em
    How     can I escape this irresistible grasp
 
 
Chorus:
D/F# - C                       C/B
           Can't keep my eyes      from
    Am
The     circling skies
Am/G – F
           Tongue-tied and twisted
         C               D
Just an     earth-bound     misfit, I
 
G – Em – D/F# -
 
 
G
   Ice is forming 
A/E           G/D
      On the       tips of my wings
G - Em                                                    D/F#
         Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of eve –       rything
G
    No navigator 
A/E       G/D
      To       find my way home
G - Em
         Unladen, empty and turned to stone
 
 
Chorus:
D/F# - C
            A soul in tension 
C/B           Am
      That's      learning to fly
Am/G – F
           Condition grounded 
          C                   g – a – c -
But de -     termined to try
C                       C/B
    Can't keep my eyes       from
     Am
The      circling skies
Am/G – F
           Tongue-tied and twisted
         C               D
Just an     earth-bound     misfit, I
 
 
Break:
Fmaj7      16 MEASURES
Am      2 MEASURES
D      2 MEASURES
 
 
G
    Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
Em
     My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
G
    Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Em
     Out of the corner of my watering eye
 
G
    A dream unthreatened by the morning light;
Em
     Could blow this soul right through 
The roof of the night
 
 
Chorus:
D/F# - C                         C/B
           There's no sensation      to 
       Am
Com -      pare with this
Am/G         F
      Sus –     pended animation
   C                  g – a – c -
A     state of bliss
C                       C/B
    Can't keep my eyes      from
     Am
The      circling skies 
Am/G – F
           Tongue-tied and twisted
         C               D
Just an     earth-bound     misfit, I
