xThis is good for people who aren't as skilled as Ian D'Sa, but still would like
play his songs. (A.K.A. me);)
Intro: C Em D Am Em D 2x
Verse:
Em D
Today I walked down our old street
Em D
Past the diner where we'd meet
C Em
Now I dine alone in our old seats
Em D
Em D
The cold wind blows right through my bones
Em D
And I feel like I'm getting old
C Em
But I wish I was getting old with you
Em D
Pre-Chorus:
C Em C
I held your hand while we took shelter from the rain
Em C
She laughed as we picked out our childrens names
Chorus:
C Em C
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Em C
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray
C Em D Am Em D
Verse:
Em D
Her clothes hang in the closet still
Em D
Her phone sits on the windowsill
C Em
And every time it rings it gives me chills
Em D
Em D
My heart just stopped when I was told
Em D
Doctor, Doctor, on the phone
C Em
Said my love was never coming home
Em D
Pre-Chorus:
C Em C
I hold your casket gently walk you to the grave
Em C
Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again
Chorus:
C Em C
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Em C
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray
D
They gave her one more day
Em G
To say the words I couldn't say
F
I'm crying in pain
Am
Crying in pain
Em D Em D C D Em D
Bridge:
Em D
And I'm not looking for answers
Em D
No I'm not looking for answers
C Em
But dear god why did you choose her?
Chorus:
C Em C
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Em C
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray
D
They gave her one more day
Em G
To say the words I couldn't say
F
I'm crying in pain
Am
Crying in pain
F
Our love will remain
Am
I'm crying in pain
Em (let ring).
