    Verse 1
    Eight 
    years 
    old 
    with 
    a 
    flour
    sack cape 

    Tied 
    all 
    around 
    his 
    neck

    He 
    climbed 
    up 
    on 
    the 
    gar
    age 

    Figurin' 
    what 
    the heck

    He screwed 
    his 
    courage 
    up 
    so tight 

    The 
    whole 
    thing 
    came 
    un
    wound 

    He got 
    a runnin' 
    start 
    and 
    bless 
    his heart 

    He 
    headed 
    for 
    the ground 

    He's 
    one of 
    those 
    who 
    Verse 2
    knows 
    that 
    life 

    Is 
    just 
    a leap 
    of faith 

    Spread 
    your 
    arms 
    and 
    hold 
    your breath 

    Always 
    trust 
    your cape 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    All 
    grown 
    up 
    with 
    a 
    flour
    sack cape 

    Tied 
    around 
    his 
    dreams 

    He was 
    full of 
    spit 
    and 
    vin
    egar 

    He was 
    bustin' 
    at 
    the seams 

    He 
    licked 
    his 
    finger 
    and he 

    checked 
    the wind 

    It was 
    gonna 
    be 
    do 
    or die 

    He 
    wasn't 
    scared 
    of nothin' 
    boys 

    And he was 
    pretty 
    sure 
    he could 
    fly 

    He's 
    one 
    of 
    those 
    who 
    Verse 4
    knows 
    that 
    life 

    Is 
    just 
    a leap 
    of faith 

    Spread 
    your 
    arms 
    and 
    hold 
    your breath 

    Always 
    trust 
    your cape 

    Interlude 2



    Verse 5
    Old 
    and 
    grey 
    with 
    a 
    flour
    sack cape 

    Tied 
    all 
    around 
    his 
    head 

    He's 
    still 
    jumpin' 
    off 
    the garage 

    Will 
    be 
    till he's 
    dead 

    All 
    these 
    years 
    the 
    people 
    said 

    He's actin' 
    like 
    a kid 

    He 
    did not 
    know 
    he could 
    not 
    fly 

    So he 
    did 

    Verse 6
    He's 
    one of 
    those 
    who 
    knows 
    that 
    life 

    Is 
    just 
    a leap 
    of 

    faith 

    Spread 
    your 
    arms 
    and 
    hold 
    your breath 

    Always 
    trust 
    your cape

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
