Sparrows Over Birmingham – Josh Rouse
Capo 1st Fret 


			 
Fell down on both knees, You were young
	          
Bones still soft, Legs fell numb

	     		       
Oh how those sparrows sang for you
               
So you grew up, An isolated pup
                   
You had some books, You had some love

                       
Oh God was watching over you
                             
Oh how those sparrows sang for you

         
Uhh  uhh uhh uhh
                  
Uhh uhh uhhhh hhhhh   uhh

                    
You witnessed a man, A holy man
                  
Touched your head, With his gentle hands

                       
Oh God was watching over you

		  
Lived in a house, In birmingham
                 
A preacher's son, The Lord's plan

                       
Oh God was watching over you
                             
Oh how those sparrows sang for two

           
Uhh uhh uhh uhh
                  
Uhh uhh uhhhh hhhhh   uhh

                      
Uhh uhh uhhuhh uhh uhhuhh  uhhhh
                      
Uhh uhh uhhuhh uhh uhhuhh  uhhhh

                 
When you arrived, He carried you there
                        
Near the preacher's son, Your only love

                       
Oh God was watching over you


Wedding bells rang			Wedding bells ring

Church choir sang 			Church choir sing

A gospel song			        Whoa-oh oh whoa

A beautiful one 			A beautiful one

                   
Oh such a melancholy tune	It's a sad tune mmmm-mmm
                      
Oh how it reminds me of you
