[Intro]
| B D#m | C# G#m | D#m C# | B D#m |
| C# G#m |
[Verse 1]
D#m C# D#m C#
Today I walked down our old street
Past the diner where we'd meet
B G#m D#m C#
Now I dine alone in our old seats
D#m C#
The cold wind blows right through my bones And I feel like
I'm getting old
B G#m D#m C#
But I wish I was getting old with you
[Pre-Chorus]
B D#m B
I held your hand when we took shelter from the rain
D#m B
She laughed as we picked out our children's names
[Chorus]
G#m D#m C#
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
B G#m D#m C#
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart,
I kneel and pray
B D#m C# G#m D#m
C#
Her clothes hang in the closet still
[Verse 2]
The phone sits on the windowsill
B G#m D#m C#
And every time it rings it gives me chills
My heart just stopped when I was told
Doctor, doctor, on the phone
B G#m D#m C#
Said my love was never coming home
[Pre-Chorus]
B D#m B
I hold your casket gently walking to the grave
D#m B
Dark clouds eclipse the sun won't shine again
[Chorus]
G#m D#m C#
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
B G#m D#m C#
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart,
I kneel and pray
[Bridge]
B G#m
They gave her one more day
D#m C#
To say the words I couldn't say
Eadd9 G#m
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain
D#m C# B G#m D#m
C#
And I'm not looking for answers
No, I'm not looking for answers
B G#m D#m
But dear God, why did you choose her?
[Chorus]
B G#m D#m C#
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
B G#m D#m
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart,
C#
I kneel and pray
[Outro]
B G#m
They gave her one more day
D#m C#
To say the words I couldn't say
Eadd9
I'm crying in pain
G#m
Crying in pain
Eadd9
Our love will remain
G#m D#m
I'm crying in pain
