This is a song called Sparrow.
[D]
[Gm]
Ooooo,
[F] a little sparrow
Who's [Eb] traveled far
And cries for rest
Not I, [C] said the oak tree
I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest
[Fm] And my blanket of leaves won't warm [Gm] her cold breast
Ooooo, [F]
a lovely little sparrow
And [Eb] who will speak a [F] kindly word
Not I, [C] said the swan
The [Fm] entire [Dm] idea [C] is utterly absurd
I'd be laughed at and scorned if the other [Gm] swans heard
And who will [F] take pity in his heart
And who will feed [Cm] a [F] starving sparrow
Not I, [C] said the golden queen
I would if [Dm] I could, [C] but I cannot, I know
I need all my grain to [Gm] prosper and grow
Ooooo,
[F] a lovely little sparrow
Will no [Eb] one write her [F] eulogy
[C] I will, said the earth
For all I've created returns unto me
From [F] dust we made and dust [Gm] shall be
[D] [Gm]
[Bb]
