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