Capo 2 

 D                        |G   |F#m
  You got to learn how to fall

B           | E         |A7
    Before you learn to fly

   |          |D7          Fdim D|
And mama, mama it ain't no lie

E7                        |
    Before you learn to fly

Em7             |D   |Am G |D |Am G |D |Am G |D |Am G |D |
     Learn how to fall


D                        |G     |F#m
  You got to drift in the breeze

B       |   E7           |A7
Before you set your sails

       |                    |D7      Fdim D|
It's an occupation where the wind prevails



E7                          |
    Before you set your sails

Em7             |D     |Am G |D |Am G |D |
     Drift in the breeze


Am              G       |D    |
Oh and it's the same old story

Am             G      |D  
Ever since the world began

    |Am           G       |D    |
Everybody got the runs for glory

      |Am       G             |D   |
Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan

      |Am       G             |D   |Am G |D |Am G |D |
Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan


D                        |G   |F#m
  You got to learn how to fall

B            |E7          |A7
    Before you learn to fly 


  |          |D7           Fdim D
The tank towns they tell no lie


B7                        |
    Before you learn to fly

Em7             |D   |Am G |D |Am G |D |Am G |D |Am G |D |
     Learn how to fall


Fade out:
Am G D |
