Vers:

Father, tell me somethin'

where do bad men go when they die?

and mother says you'll go there but

wings for her and I. And I don't mind

ring

Cause I have always wanted to learn to...

Chorus

Fly... learn to

Fly... learn to

Fly... learn to

ring

Fly...

Vers:

Brother, tell me somethin'

If I take this, am I going to die?

And he says no, so then I figure what the hell

 I'll try cause it's my life

ring

So light the match and you and I will...

Chorus

Fly... learn to

Fly... learn to

Fly... learn to

Fly...

 Cause I'm on my hands and knees I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness

 And someday I'll be there I swear to you, God as my witness

 For all the trusts I've broke and, let justice know, it's just that easy

  ring

Cause I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar...

Vers:

And father tell your son,

 It's not your gun and bloody hands

 Don't hide behind locked doors

  ring

In dresser drawers those bullets wait to fly...

Chorus

Fly... wait to

Fly... wait to

Fly... wait to

ring

Fly...

 Cause I'm on my hands and knees I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness

 And someday I'll be there I swear to you, God as my witness

 For all the trusts I've broke and, let justice know, it's just that easy

  ring

Cause I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar...

The „punch" (is it really called punch? Dunno, I mean the way you hit the strings)

is a bit tricky, I play it like this:

D / U u D <- which means: d = down eigth D = down quarter

u = Up eigth U = Up quarter

/ = mute
