Intro
F Dm A# F Dm A#
[Verse 1]
F
I feel like an echo waiting for a voice of its own
Dm A#
I am waiting in the darkness for a word
To take me home
F
I feel like a broken shadow that is long since overgrown
Dm
A# skeleton that's kept my memories
A#
Written in it's bones
[Chorus]
F A#
If Your eye is on the sparrow
Dm
If You're worried about the dove
G
Have You heard all of my shouting?
Will You come down from above?
F A#
If Your eye is on the sparrow
Dm
If You're worried about the bird
C F
Did You get all of my letters?
A#
Did You read my troubled words?
[Instrumental]
F Dm A# F Dm A#
[Verse 2]
F
I feel like a dried-up fountain waiting for the rain to fall
To fill the cracks and holes and see if there is
A#
Hope for me at all
F
I feel like an empty inkwell with nothing left to say
Dm
'Cause all the letters that I wrote to You have
A#
All been thrown away
[Chorus]
F A#
If Your eye is on the sparrow
Dm
If You're worried about the dove
G
Have You heard all of my shouting?
Will You come down from above?
F A#
If Your eye is on the sparrow
Dm
If You're worried about the bird
C F
Did You get all of my letters?
A#
Did You read my troubled words?
[Chorus 2]
A#
But If Your eye is on the sparrow
F
If You're worried about its wings
C
Then I'm a fool to think
A#
That You'd ignore the worries that I sing
Rather if I hear an echo
F
And if the shadow's there
C
Then You must be on the other end
A#
To make these things appear
[Interlude]
F
Oh, oh, ooh
G Dm
Oh, oh, ooh
A# F
Oh, oh, ooh
C Gm
Oh, oh, ooh
[Outro]
A# F
I sing because I'm happy, I sing because I'm free
C A#
His eye's on the sparrow and he watches over me
F
Oh, I sing because I'm happy, I sing because I'm free
C F
His eye's on the sparrow and he watches over me
