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