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