  • Verse 1
    He 
    blesses 
    the 
    boys 
    as they 

    stand 
    in 
    line 

    The smell 
    of gun 
    grease 
    and 

    the 
    bayonets 
    they shine 

    He's 
    there 
    to 
    help 
    them 

    all 
    that 
    he 
    can 

    To make 
    them 
    feel 
    wanted 

    he's 
    good 
    holy 
    man. 

    Verse 2

    Sky 
    pilot... 
    Sky 
    pilot 

    How 
    high 
    can 
    you 
    fly? 

    You'll 
    never, 
    never, 

    nev
    er 
    reach 
    the 
    sky. 

    Verse 3

    He smiles 
    at the 
    young 
    soldiers 

    tells 
    them 
    it's 
    all 
    right 

    He 
    knows 
    of 
    their 
    fear 
    in 
    the 

    forth
    coming 
    fight 

    Soon 
    there'll 
    be 
    blood 

    and 
    many 
    will 
    die 

    Mothers 
    and 
    fathers 
    back 

    home 
    they 
    will 
    cry. 

    Verse 4
    Sky 
    pilot... 
    Sky 
    pilot 

    How 
    high 
    can 
    you 
    fly? 

    You'll 
    nev
    er, 
    never, 

    Verse 5
    never 
    reach 
    the 
    sky. 


    He 
    mumbles 
    a prayer 
    and it 

    ends 
    with 
    a smile 

    The 
    order 
    is 
    given 

    They 
    move 
    down 
    the 
    line 

    But 
    he's 
    still 
    behind 
    and 
    he'll 
    meditate 

    But it 
    won't 
    stop 
    the 

    bleeding 
    or 
    ease 
    the 
    hate 

    As the 
    Verse 6
    young 
    men 
    move 

    out 
    into 
    the battle 
    zone 

    He 
    feels 
    good, 

    with 
    God 
    you're 
    never 
    alone 

    He 
    feels 
    tired 
    and 
    he lays 
    on 
    his 
    bed 

    Hopes 
    the men 
    will 
    find 
    courage 

    in the 
    words 
    that 
    he 
    said. 

    Verse 7
    Sky 
    pilot... 
    Sky 
    Pilot 

    How 
    high 
    can 
    you 
    fly? 

    You'll 
    never, 
    never, 
    nev
    er 
    reach 
    the 
    sky.

    With tears

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
