A rebel without a clue
The papers said Ed always played from the heart He got an agent and a roadie named Bart They made a record and it went in the charts The sky was the limit His leather jacket had chains that would jingle They both met movie stars, partied and mingled Their A&R man said "I don't hear a single" The future was wide open Into the great wide open...

Learning To Fly

F

Am
G
Well I started out down a dirty road Started out all alone And the sun went down as I crossed the hill And the town lit up, the world got still I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings Coming down is the hardest thing Well the good old days may not return And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings Coming down is the hardest thing Well some say life will beat you down Break your heart, steal your crown So I've started out, for God knows where I guess I'll know when I get there I'm learning to fly around the clouds But what goes up must come down I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings Coming down is the hardest thing I'm learning to fly around the clouds But what goes up must come down I'm learning to fly I'm learning to fly
