Sparrow And The Wolf by James Vincent McMorrow
Sparrow And The Wolf
This is how I fingerpick the chords, listen to the song for the rhythm
and for how many times to repeat each chord pattern:

Verse
D
sparrow and wolf lay as still as the blades of the grass
Bm G
like worn leather boots, of color
D
and size that would last
D
caught them a lark in a trap, and each held a wing
Bm G
then they tore it apart, before
D
that small bird could sing
Bm G D D
oh-oo-oh
D A D
oh-oo-oh
D
confused by the wind, bruised by the size of the rain
Bm G
she turned in to him, begged for
D
the light to remain
D
but plans have been made, all the furniture sold
Bm G
so store up your hate, use it for
D
warmth when you're cold
Chorus
G
for I have seen no joy, only danger,
D
I see no joy, only strangers,
A G
I see no joy; see no joy in this world.
G
should you, choose to go, please be careful of
D
lonesome roads, men who travel them
A
will not know, will not know of
G
your ways.
