Intro  Am D Dm Am x2  
       Am D D Am x4   

verse 1  
Am  
Now the dirt is washed away 
        D 
And all alibis are out 
                                        Am 
And the hands that used to heal me only curse me now. 
                         D 
The echoes of a woman so kind 
                                         Am 
Rain like waterfalls and ice-cream on my worried mind. 
                             D 
I lay there in the puddle of myself 
                                       Am 
Fishing for a brand new wish from that bucket down the well. 
                             D 
And in her colours I find my faith, 
                                      Am 
Cause I remember every word that lady used to say. 

         E                      Dm 
She said hearts can't break themselves 
            Am 
Looking for something, leaving with nothing 
    E                  Dm  
But souls can save themselves 
             Am        G         Am    D 
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! 
D                                 Am  
Be a long way home without you 
It's such a long way home without you. 
D     D     Am  
Yeah, yeah. 


verse 2  
Am 
Miss my mother, like no other, 
        D 
Made me human, made me brother 
                                               Am 
Hands would swell and they would blister for my sake and my sisters 
                                  D 
The guardian of my karma, keep my feet on terra firma 
                                        Am 
And then release me like a scion to the sky! 

              E                      Dm 
She said that hearts can't break themselves 
               Am 
Looking for something, leaving with nothing 
    E                  Dm 
But souls can save themselves 
            Am         G          Am D D Am   
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! 
Am                  D          D Am  
This heart can tell sometime
 

verse 3 
Am 
Sister, you have some hungry eyes 
D 
Can bite back you're hypnotized 
Smiling faces in disguise 
Am 
Can bite back you're hypnotized. 
Keep going against the grain 
D                                     
And soon that's all, soon that's all you'll know 
                Am 
And soon that's all you'll know 
And let's get this straight 
                                   D 
Sometimes you'll rise, and there's times you'll fall 
After all, you're just blood and bones 
              Am 
And you don't owe no one nothing 
No, you don't owe no one 
              D 
So don't live like one price is right, 
                                                    Am  
Cause there's some things in your life that you can fight! 
 
              E                     Dm 
She said that hearts can't break themselves 
            Am  
Looking for something, wind up with nothing 
    E                 Dm 
But souls can save themselves 
            Am         G          Am D 
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! 
D        Am  
Of mine.

Oh momma, how I love you!

Learning to fly, learning to fly 
   E            Dm  
No momma, how I love you 
            Am         G          Am D  D 
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! 
                          Am  
We're a long way home without you
