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