Chorus: -------
Em
Fly little sparrow

Am             Em
High above the clouds,
Looking for a place to
         Am    B7   Em
Lay your weary body down.

Em
Fly on little sparrow

Am               Em
Northward to the sun,
Wonder if you'll ever
D        A      Em
Find yourself a home.
Verse: ------
G
Tell me, Little sparrow

                     C
Tell me, What do you see?

                 G
I see a concrete canyon

   B             Em
Without a single tree,

            C              G
And it goes winding on for ever

                        C
Where once proud rivers ran,

                     G
Oh I hope that I can find

                C  Em C B7 Em
One truly happy man.
Chorus: -------
Em
Fly little sparrow

Am             Em
High above the clouds,
Looking for a place to
         Am    B7   Em
Lay your weary body down.
Verse: ------
G
I seek a land of far horizons

                           C
Of gentle winds and summer rain,

                           G
Where the children are not hungry

            B             Em
And they've put an end to pain,

           C              G
And I will sing a song of freedom

                        C
In the arms of a golden tree,

                         G
Is there such a place on earth

                     C  Em C B7 Em
For a tiny bird like me?
Chorus: -------
Em
Fly little sparrow

Am             Em
High above the clouds,
Looking for a place to
         Am    B7   Em
Lay your weary body down.
Coda: -----
Em
Yes and fly on little sparrow

Am               Em
Northward to the sun,
Wonder if you'll ever
D        A      Em
Find yourself a home.
