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