The Cape

By Guy Clark
From the Dublin Blues CD

Guitar Intro:
Strum each chord on the down beat
emphasize the bass line






Eight years old with a flour sack cape
Tied all around his neck
He climbed up on the garage
Figurin’ what the heck
He screwed his courage up so tight
The whole thing came unwound
He got a runnin’ start and bless his heart
He headed for the ground

CHORUS:
Well he’s one of those who knows that life
Is just a leap of faith
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape



All grown up with a flour sack cape
Tie all around his dreams
He’s full of ps and vinegar
He’s bustin at the seams
He licked his finger and checked the wind
It’s gonna be do or die
He wasn’t scared of nothin’, Boys
He was pretty sure he could fly

CHORUS

Old and grey with a flour sack cape
Tied all around his head
He’s still jumpin’ off the garage
And 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

CHORUS
