[Verse 1]
B
I knew you were gone
F#
Before any other
C#m                        F#
Silent you slipped out the door
B
I knew in my bones
F#
It would be wrong to stop you
C#m                        F#
I couldn’t keep you anymore
B
You were a surprise
F#
Unlike any other
C#m                        B
A gift from the stars and the moon
E
I fell to my knees
B
Again and again
     C#m                  F#
overcome overwhelmed over you
 
[Chorus]
C#m
I breathed I breathed
  B
I opened up my hands
  E
I tried my best to soften to the fear
C#m
Oh please oh please, no
B
sparrow at the window
Em7
Still come the night you left us here
 
[Verse 2]
B
Grief is a hawk
F#
Flying over in circles
C#m                     F#
Keeping her eyes on the ground
B
Swift as an arrow
C#m
She’s pinned to my breast
F#                    B
She rises, I am empty now
 
[Chorus]
C#m
So breathe, oh breathe
        B
Just open up your hands
              E                                                     B
There’s nothing left to hold now but the air
C#m
In dreamless sleep
B
Oh sparrow at the window
E
still come the night
B
come find me there
