CEmAG Eight years old with a flour sack cape FGC Tied all around his neck CEmAG He climbed up on the garage FG Figurin' what the heck CEmAG He screwed his courage up so tight FGC The whole thing came unwound CEmAG He got a runnin' start and bless his heart FGC He headed for the ground
CHORUS: AG Well he's one of those who knows that life FC Is just a leap of faith CEmAG Spread your arms and hold your breath FGC And always trust your cape
