Tom Odell - Sparrow: chords

G#           Cm             A#              D#
Why sparrow why, won't you tell me why I'm sad
Fm             G7          Cm             F
Sing us both a melody, the best that you can
G#           Cm             A#        D#
Fly sparrow fly, won't you sit on my hand
Fm              G7           Cm            F
Sing it in that language we both can understand

Chorus:
          G#
When you sit on that tree
    F/A
You look in my eyes
G#                 F/A
I wonder what goes on in your mind

Speak, sparrow, speak
Please, won't you try?
Tell me why you'd walk if you knew that you could fly
Speak, sparrow, speak
Oh, please, won't you try?
Tell me all the answers to this meaningless life

Chorus:
And you're up on that tree,
and you look in my eyes
And I wonder what goes on in your mind
(Louder and louder and louder and louder)

Stay, sparrow, stay
Won't you stay in my window?
I'd never been so close to anything so beautiful
Wait, sparrow, wait
Oh, please don't you go
I love the way your feathers move
as the wind it blows

Chorus:
But you're up on that tree,
when you look in my eyes
I wonder what goes on in your mind
(Louder and louder and louder and louder)
(Louder and louder and louder and louder)

Sing, sparrow sing, sing away our pain
When you get to the bones of it, we are just the same
I said sing sparrow sing, sing away our pain
I'll never hear a melody as sweet as today

Chorus:
Because you're up on that tree,
and you look in my eyes
And I wonder how, but you're saying goodbye
