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. 



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? 



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.
