[Verse 1]
F           Am             G               C
Why sparrow why, won't you tell me why I'm sad
F              Am  Em      F             Am       
Sing us both a melody, the best that you can
F           Am             G         C
Fly sparrow fly, won't you sit on my hand
F               Am    Em    F             Am     
Sing it in that language we both can understand
 
        F
When you sit on that tree
    Am
You look in my eyes
F                  Am
I wonder what goes on in your mind

[Verse 2]
F             Am    G                C
Speak sparrow speak please won't you try
F                 Am  Em      F                   Am             
Tell me why you'd walk if you knew that you could fly
F             Am       G                C
Speak sparrow speak oh please won't you try
F               Am  Em          F           Am   
Tell me all the answers to this meaningless life

           F
But you're up on that tree
        Am
And you look in my eyes
F                  Am
I wonder what goes on in your mind

[Verse 3]
F             Am              G             C
Stay, sparrow stay, won't you stay in my window
F                   Am  Em      F             Am    
I've never been so close to anything so beautiful
F             Am       G                C
Wait, sparrow wait, oh please don't you go
F                Am      Em   F                Am      
I love the way I felt as the, vast the wind it blows

           F
But you're up on that tree
        Am
And you look in my eyes
F                  Am
I wonder what goes on in your mind

[Verse 4]
F             Am    G             C
Sing, sparrow sing, sing away our pain
F                   Am       Em     F            Am       
When you get to the bones of it, we are just the same
F             Am          G             C
I said sing sparrow sing, sing away our pain
F                 Am  Em    F         Am   
I'll never hear a melody as sweet as today

             F
Cause you're up in that tree
        Am
And you look in my eyes
F                            Am
And I wonder how, but you're saying goodbye
