capo 2nd fret
standard tuning:eadgbe
Am Little sparrow, little sparrow
Dm Precious fragile little thing
Am Little sparrow, little sparrow
DmAm Flies so high and feels no pain.
Am All ye maidens, heed my warning
Dm Never trust the hearts of men
AmE They will crush you like a sparrow
DmAm Leaving you to never mend.
Am They will vow to always love you
Dm Swear no love but yours will do
AmE Then they'll leave you for another
DmAm Break your little heart in two.
AND SO FORTH AND SO FORTH... HERE ARE THE REST OF THE LYRICS THE CHORDS ARE THE SAME THROUGHOUT.
Little sparrow, little sparrow Precious fragile little thing Little sparrow, little sparrow Flies so high and feels no pain.
If I were a little sparrow O'er these mountains I would fly I would find you, I would find you Look into your lying eyes.
I would flutter all around you On my little sparrow wings I would ask you, I would ask you Why you let me love in vain.
I am not a little sparrow I am just the broken dream Of a cold, false-hearted lover And your evil, cunning scheme.
Little sparrow, little sparrow Precious fragile little thing Little sparrow, little sparrow Flies so high and feels no pain.
All ye maidens fair and tender Never trust the hearts of men They will crush you like a sparrow Leaving you to never mend.
Little sparrow, little sparrow Oh the sorrow never ends
