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