ASCAP.] 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 ol' days, may not return And the rocks might melt & 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 2. Kings Highway [Written by Tom Petty.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music ASCAP.] When the time gets right I'm gonna pick you up And take you far away From trouble my love Under a big ol' sky Out in a field of green There's gotta be something Left for us to believe Oh, I await the day Good fortune comes our way And we ride down the Kings Highway No you can't hide out In a six gun town We wanna hold our heads up, But we gotta stay down I don't wanna end up In a room all alone Don't wanna end up someone That I don't even know Lover, I await the day Good fortune comes our way And we ride down the Kings Highway 3. Into the Great Wide Open [Written by Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] Eddie waited til' he finished high school He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo He met a girl out there with a tattoo too The future was wide open They moved into a place they both could afford He found a night club he could work at the door She had a guitar and she taught him some chords The sky was the limit Into the great wide open Under them skies of blue Out in the great wide open 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 chart 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 Under them skies of blue Out in the great wide open A rebel without a clue 4. Two Gunslingers [Written by Tom Petty.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music ASCAP.] Two gungslingers walked out in the street and one said "I don't wanna fight no more" And the other gunslinger thought about it and said "Yeah, What are we fighting for? I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life now, right now, oh yeah" Well the crowd that assembled for the gun fight Were let down, everyone hissed and booed And a stranger told his mrs. "that's the last one of these gunfights You're ever gonna drag me to I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life now, right now, oh yeah" Well the two gunslingers, went ridin' out of town and Were never heard from no more And there ain't been a gunfight for a long time, Maybe never, but nobody knows for sure I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life, I'm takin' control of my life now, right now, Oh yeah 5. The Dark of the Sun [Written by Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] In the dark of the sun, will you save me a place? Give me hope, give me comfort, get me to A better place? I saw you sail across a river Underneath Orion's sword In your eyes there was a freedom I had never known before Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun We will stand together Yeah we will stand as one, in the dark of the sun Past my days of great confusion Past my days of wondering why Will I sail into the heavens Constellations in my eyes? Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun We will stand together Yeah we will stand as one, in the dark of the sun 6. All or Nothin' [Written by Tom Petty, Mike Campbell and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/Wild Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] Your daddy was a Sgt. Major You didn't wanna, but he made you Wipe his brass from time to time If left a picture in your mind You know? You know? You want it all, you want it all, All or nothin' Here am I a fallen arrow My load is wide, my street is narrow My skin is thicker, my heart is tougher I don't mind workin', but I'm scared to suffer You know? You know? You want it all, you want it all, All or nothin' Sweet chariots of L.A. swing low At twilight time the smog makes a rainbow So keep one eye on the weather You had it good, you wanted better You know? You know? You want it all, you want it all, All or nothin' 7. All the Wrong Reasons Trouble blew in on a cold dark wind It came without no warning And that big ol' house went up for sale They were on the road by morning Oh, the days went slow, into the changing season Oh, out in the cold, for all the wrong reasons Well she grew up hard and she grew up fast In the age of television And she made a vow to have it all It became her new religion Oh, down in her soul, it was an act of treason Oh, down they go for all the wrong reasons Where the sky begins the horizon ends Despite the best intentions And a big ol' man goes up for sale He becomes his own invention Oh, the days go slow into the changing season Oh, bought and sold, for all the wrong reasons Oh, down they go for all the wrong reasons 8. Too Good to be True [Written by Tom Petty.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music ASCAP.] Her imagination ran wild Could this really happen to me? She could barely hold back the tears It was too good to be true It was too good to be true It was too good to be true Everything that she'd waited for Everything that she'd dared to dream Suddenly was outside her door It was too good to be true It was too good to be true It was too good to be true There was no talk of giving in And just as hope was wearing thin Her eyes were like a child again Too good to be true Morning on the outskirts of town Sitting in the traffic alone You don't know what it means to be free It was too good to be true 9. Out in the Cold [Written by Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] The day fell down, the air fell cold I walked out in the street Daydreamed for a mile or two Staring at my feet like a working boy Out of luck, falling through the cracks Night rolled in, I turned back home A hard wind at my back I'm out in the cold, body and soul There's nowhere to go I'm out in the cold When I woke up my brain was stunned I could not come around I reached out to grab my keys And tumbled to the ground I thought of you starry-eyed, I wonder where we stand? Did I just fall from your arms Down into your hands? I'm out in the cold, body and soul There's nowhere to go I'm out in the cold I'm out standing in a door-way I'm out walking 'round hands in my pockets I'm out in the cold 10. You and I Will Meet Again [Written by Tom Petty.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music ASCAP.] You and I will meet again When we're least expecting it One day in some far off place I will recognize your face I won't say good-bye my friend For you and I will meet again I heard you singing to no one I saw you dancing all alone One day you belonged to me Next day I just wouldn't know Someday all the rules will bend And you and I will meet again I've got a feeling I've got a feeling so strong Maybe someday our paths will cross A red-winged hawk is circling The blacktop stretches out for days How could I get so close to you And still feel so far away? I hear a voice come on the wind Sayin' you and I will meet again I don't know how, I don't know when But you and I will meet again 11. Makin' Some Noise [Written by Tom Petty, Mike Campbell and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/ Wild Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] When I was a young boy I was workin' for the state I wasn't makin' much money I was stayin' out late Go down at nighttime and Play music in the bars Take my breaks out underneath the stars I was makin' some noise I was a workin' boy up at the top of my voice Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise" I had to rock the boat, I had to shake the tree To see what'd fall down on me I thought "Maybe I can make it if I never give in I been down before, I ain't goin' down again" I'm makin' some noise I been a worried boy up at the top of my voice Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise" From across the canyon a guitar plays Through an amplifier on a long delay It was an old melody I recognized the song I had an amplifier too, so I played along I'm makin' some noise, I'm still a working boy Up at the top of my voice Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise" I'm makin' some noise, I been a long gone boy 12. Built to Last [Written by Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.] [©1991 Gone Gator Music/EMI April Music Inc. ASCAP.] Somewhere out my doorway Somewhere down my block I can hear her heartbeat In rhythm with my clock I want her more than diamonds I want her more than gold I want her more than anything anyone could hold We were built to last On until forever The world is changing fast, But our love was built to last She has followed me down Along some empty streets She has followed me where the rain would fall in sheets And I know I been changing Changing like the wind I was feeling burned out I got tired of it We were built to last On until forever The world is changing fast, But our love was built to last So come to me my darlin' Hold me while I sleep I know you feel lost, But you're not in too deep We were built to last, On until forever The world is changing fast, But our love was built to last [[eof]]
