Lyrics

Well, she’s (Em)walk in’

through the clouds

with a (Am)cir cus mind

that’s run ning wild.

(Bm)But ter flies and ze bras and (Bb)moon beams

and, uh, (C)fair y tales:

that’s all she ev er thinks a bout.

Rid ing with the (D)wind.

When I’m (Em)sad,

she comes to me

with a (Am)thou sand smiles;

she gives to me free.

It’s al right she says.

(Bb)It’s al right.

Take (C)an y thing you want from me,

an y thing.

(D)An y thing.

(Em)walk in’

through the clouds

with a (Am)cir cus mind

that’s run ning wild.

(Bm)But ter flies and ze bras and (Bb)moon beams

and, uh, (C)fair y tales:

that’s all she ev er thinks a bout.

Rid ing with the (D)wind.

When I’m (Em)sad,

she comes to me

with a (Am)thou sand smiles;

she gives to me free.

It’s al right she says.

(Bb)It’s al right.

Take (C)an y thing you want from me,

an y thing.

(D)An y thing.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

Can I slow "Little Wing" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
