Rodney Crowell - Still Learning How To Fly (w/ ) guitar chord

Still Learning How to Fly--Rodney Crowell

written by R. Crowell

From the album FATE'S RIGHT HAND

Palamin0 did a great job with the un-capo'd tab, but this sounds just slightly

better to me (could be my ears, I don't know). It also avoids F#m and C#m.

Capo II

INTRO: G Cadd9 (4x)

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

The hour is early, the whole world is quiet

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

A beautiful morning is about to ignite

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

I'm ready for danger, I'm ready for fire

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

I'm ready for something to take me up higher

CHORUS 1:

C D

Life's been good I guess

Em

My ragged ol' heart's been blessed

C D Em Em7

With so much more than meets the eye

C D

I got a past I won't soon forget

Em

And you ain't seen nothin yet

C D G

I'm still learnin how to fly

It's the dreams that die hard, with old old habits to break

You can't let down your guard when there's so much at stake

I'm halfway to heaven, halfway to hell

But I might roll a seven you never can tell

CHORUS 2:

Life's been good it's true

When I'm feeling just like new

The same old rules need not apply

I've got a past full of sticks and stones

And a good feeling in my bones

I'm still learning how to fly

BRIDGE:

D C-C

I wanna go faster

D G-G

I don't wanna slow down

C D C-C

I don't wanna get off of this merry-go-round

D G-Cadd9

I wanna be reckless

D G-G

I wanna be vain

C D G

I wanna make love like a runaway train

CHORUS 3:

Life's been good I've said

I'm ten thousand miles ahead

The day I rest is the day I die

I got a past like a broken wing

But you ain't seen anything

C D Bm-D-Em

I'm still learning how to fly

C D G

I'm still learnin how to fly
