Dm           Gm
We went long into the night

    A7               Dm
Our fire was strong, our eyes were bright

Dm                       Gm
And though I failed in my desire

  A7             Dm
I tried my love, my love I tried

Dm                         Gm
I know these chords have played before

  A7                  Dm
I played one-thousand times or more

Dm               Gm
And if I fail to write them new

     A7             Dm
Just know my love I tried for you
Dm [Verse]
Gm                              C
   In the light you'll disappear

                      F
Into the world outside

                          BbMaj7
In the night you shine so clear

                  Gm
And burn so bright

                         C
You're my sparrow in the night

          F               BbMaj7    A
And all I rea-ea-eally mean        is
[Chorus]
        Dm
I wanna lift
Yea-ea-ea-ea-eah
                     C
Yeah I just wanna fly

Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

Gm
Like Pele said "No I'm not dead"
I wanna be with you again
                 C
A sparrow in the night

        Dm
I wanna li-i-i-ift

             C
I just wanna fly

Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

        Gm
I wanna face the sky, say "I'm not dead"
I wanna be with you again
                  C
My sparrow in the night

F
  I can't find it in no fame

                           Dm
I can't find it down those stairs
I can't find it on no roll
                              Gm
Or when I'm out there gambling
I can't find it on no screen
                         C
It's not showing anywhere
I can't find it without you N.C Without you here [Post-Chorus]
N.C.                Gm

Gm                          C            F
Maybe I'll find you in the wild far from here

                      BbMaj7
Like a memory far gone

                 Gm
That always near

                        C
You keep this animal alive

          F      BbMaj7  A
And all I really mean    is

I wanna face the sky, say "I'm not dead"
I wanna be with you again

My sparrow in the ni-igh-ight

F
  I can't find it in no fame

                           Dm
I can't find it down those stairs
I can't find it on no roll
                          Gm
Or when I'm out there gambling
I can't find it on no screen
                         C
It's not showing anywhere
I can't find it without you
                         Dm
Without you here with me
[Bridge]
Dm
When the numbers all add up

       C                  F
I'm so bored oh can't you see?
With them one and one makes two
                        Gm
With you one and one is three
I need a life a little spark
                          C
I need to let it all hang free
But I can't do it without you N.C. Without you here [Post-Chorus]
N.C.                Gm
