Little Sparrow chords by Dolly Parton

Little Sparrow by Dolly Parton

Capo 2

Acapella:

Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
                Am
Flies so high and feels no pain

    Am
All ye maidens heed my warning
   Dm         Am
Never trust the hearts of men
     Am
They will crush you like a sparrow
    Dm   Em   Am
Leaving you to never mend
     Am
They will vow to always love you
     Dm         Am
Swear no love but yours will do
       Am
Then they'll leave you for another
      Dm   Em    Am
Break your little heart in two

Chorus:
    Am
Little sparrow, little sparrow
     Dm       Am
Precious fragile little thing
    Am
Little sparrow, little sparrow
     Dm    Em    Am
Flies so high and feels no pain

(fiddle/musical interlude)
  Am
If I were a little sparrow
      Dm        Am
O'er these mountains I would fly
     Am
I would find him, I would find him
    Dm   Em   Am
Look into his lying eyes
     Am
I would flutter all around him
    Dm      Am
On my little sparrow wings
    Am
I would ask him, I would ask him
    Dm  Em    Am
Why he let me love in vain

   Am
I am not a little sparrow
   Dm       Am
I am just the broken dream
   Am
Of a cold false-hearted lover
    Dm  Em    Am
And his evil cunning scheme

    Am
Little sparrow, little sparrow
     Dm       Am
Precious fragile little thing
    Am
Little sparrow, little sparrow
     Dm    Em    Am
Flies so high and feels no pain

Acapella:

All ye maidens fair and tender
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow (begin quietly playing single downstrokes where
noted, let ring out)
    Dm  Em   Am
Leaving you to never mend
    Am
Little sparrow, little sparrow
    Dm   Em   Am
Oh the sorrow never ends
