Pretty simple, listen to the song to get the rhythm. I couldn't find official 
lyrics online so I wrote these out, I think they are pretty close. Use bar chords 
in the verses and regular chords in the chorus. Awesome band, great song.
[Intro]
G A D G
[Verse 1]
GStay hydrated from a double shot
AGet my nourishment from a punch in the gut
DNever really felt I had the best of luck
GI got a big big mouth that just a won't shut up
GHop in the car turn the radio on
AOut from the speakers a familiar song
DHead down the road start to hum along
GMade it all the way home and left the TV on
[Chorus]
CBut I'm gonna Dlearn to fly an GairplaneG7  
CAnd it's gonna Dmake my mama GproudG7  
EI'm gonna get my dad to nAmotice meA7  
Even if I have to fly it into the D7ground
[Verse 2]
GI know my days are numbered but I'm bad at math
AI got a dick so hard that a cat couldn't scratch
DMade some bad decisions, I shouldn't go back
GI can't see her it's just not like that
GYou see I had this lovely baby but I roughed her up
AThere's a little ounce of pain behind every grunt
DAll the noise that I make, I shouldn't complain
GRegrets, tourettes, I guess it's the same
[Chorus]
CBut I'm gonna lDearn to fly an GairplaneG7  
CI'm gonna Dmake my children GproudG7  
EI'm gonna make them all respect AmmeA7  
Like when I first showed up in tD7own
[Guitar Solo]
[Piano Solo]
[Verse 3]
GAin't no money coming in cause I get child support
ATo a family who don't want me but don't leave me alone
DIt's a terrible way to live but it ain't my choice
GI sign away all my earnings on a little invoice
GI'd like to be the hero on the evening news
ASmiling in the face of danger like there's nothing to lose
DTaking out a terrorist before he self detonates
GTelling kids to stay in school and always get good grades
[Chorus]
CAnd I'm gonna Dlearn to fly an GairplaneG7  
CAnd I'm gonna Dmake my country GproudG7  
EI'm send this off to AmNashvilleA7  
And sell my soul to a whole new cD7rowd

[Intro]

G A D G

[Verse 1]

Stay hydrated from a double shot

Get my nourishment from a punch in the gut

Never really felt I had the best of luck

I got a big big mouth that just a won't shut up

Hop in the car turn the radio on

Out from the speakers a familiar song

Head down the road start to hum along

Made it all the way home and left the TV on

[Chorus]

C D G G7

But I'm gonna learn to fly an airplane

C D G G7

And it's gonna make my mama proud

E Am A7

I'm gonna get my dad to notice me

Even if I have to fly it into the ground

[Verse 2]

I know my days are numbered but I'm bad at math

I got a dick so hard that a cat couldn't scratch

Made some bad decisions, I shouldn't go back

I can't see her it's just not like that

You see I had this lovely baby but I roughed her up

There's a little ounce of pain behind every grunt

All the noise that I make, I shouldn't complain

Regrets, tourettes, I guess it's the same

[Chorus]

C D G G7

But I'm gonna learn to fly an airplane

C D G G7

I'm gonna make my children proud

E Am A7

I'm gonna make them all respect me

Like when I first showed up in town

[Guitar Solo]

[Piano Solo]

[Verse 3]

Ain't no money coming in cause I get child support

To a family who don't want me but don't leave me alone

It's a terrible way to live but it ain't my choice

I sign away all my earnings on a little invoice

I'd like to be the hero on the evening news

Smiling in the face of danger like there's nothing to lose

Taking out a terrorist before he self detonates

Telling kids to stay in school and always get good grades

[Chorus]

C D G G7

And I'm gonna learn to fly an airplane

C D G G7

And I'm gonna make my country proud

E Am A7

I'm send this off to Nashville

And sell my soul to a whole new crowd
