Em
Fly little sparrow
Am Em
High above the clouds,
Looking for a place to

Lay your weary body down.

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

Tell me, Little sparrow

Tell me, What do you see?

I see a concrete canyon

Without a single tree,

And it goes winding on for ever

Where once proud rivers ran,
G
Oh I hope that I can find
C Em C B7 Em
One truly happy man.

I seek a land of far horizons
C
Of gentle winds and summer rain,

Where the children are not hungry
B Em
And they've put an end to pain,

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?
