Biography:
Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.
The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

White sparrows
Billy Talent
Kapo 1. fret
Intro:
Bb Dm C G Dm C Dm - 2x
Verse1:
Dm C
Today I walked down our old street
Dm C
Past the diner where we'd meet
Bb G Dm
Now I dine alone in our old seats
Verse2:
The cold wind blows right through my bones
And I feel like I'm getting old
But I wish I was getting old with you
Pre chorus:
Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb
I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain
Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb
She laughed as we picked out our children's names
Chorus:
Bb G Dm C Bb
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
G Dm C Bb
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
Bb Dm C G Dm C Dm - 2x
Verse3:
Her clothes hang in the closet still
The phone sits on the windowsill
And every time it rings it gives me chills
Verse4:
My heart just stopped when I was told
Doctor, doctor, on the phone
Said my love was never coming home
Pre Chorus:
I hold your casket gently walking to the grave
Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again
Chorus:
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
Break:
Bb G
They gave her one more day
Dm F
To say the words I couldn't say
Dm G
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain
Dm C
And I'm not looking for answers
Dm C
No, I'm not looking for answers
Bb G Dm C
But dear God, why did you choose her?
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my
heart, I kneel and pray
They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain
Crying in pain
Dm
Our love will remain
G Dm
I'm crying in pain
