Great tune in my opinion and one that's handy enough to get the strum pattern to. Hope you all enjoy :D
Intro: (F C Am G) X 4
[F]Well I started [C]out,[Am] [G] [F]down a dirty r[C]oad [Am] [G]
[F]Started [C]out[Am] [G] [F]all al[C]one[Am] [G]
[F]And the sun went [C]down[Am], [G] [F]as I crossed the [C]hill [Am] [G]
[F]As the town lit [C]up, [Am] [G] [F]the world got s[C]till[Am] [G]
Chorus:
[F]I'm learning to [C]fly,[Am] [G] [F]but I ain't got [C]wings[Am] [G]
[F]Coming [C]down[Am] [G] [F]is the hardest [C]thing[Am] [G]
[F]Well the good ol' [C]days[Am], [G] [F]may not r[C]etur[Am]n [G]
[F]And the rocks may [C]melt[Am] [G] [F]and the sea may [C]burn[Am] [G]
(Chorus)(solo)
[F]Well some say [C]life[Am] [G] [F]will beat you [C]down[Am], [G]
[F]Break your [C]heart[Am], [G] [F]steal your [C]crown[Am] [G]
[F]So I started [C]out,[Am] [G] [F]for god knows [C]wher[Am]e [G]
[F]I guess I'll [C]know[Am] [G] [F]when I get [C]ther[Am]e [G]
[F]I'm learning to [C]fly,[Am] [G] [F]around the [C]clouds,[Am] [G]
[F]But what goes [C]up [Am] [G] [F]must come [C]down [Am]
I just gave it a quick run through, and it sounds great. Good one, thanks Dr. Teeth! 8)

Dr Teeth - Great tab! If you just play the chords the strumming pattern just fits if you know the song!
Thanks,
