CD: Greatest Hits (originally on Real Life Conversations)
c1989 Sparrow Song
Tab by Steve Cruickshank
*
There are two guitar parts in the song, one for the left side of the
recording and one for the right side. I put down the two separate
parts for the intro, which is the main progression of the song, but for
the rest of the song Ive left it as just one guitar because they play
pretty much the same thing. Hope it makes sense.
Oh yeah, tune down half a step and drop low string to Db.

Verse 1:
Dadd9 Dmaj7 Dsus Dadd9
Sometimes his eyes were gentle and filled with laughter
G D/F# Em7
And sometimes they cried
Dadd9 Dmaj7 Dsus Dadd9
Sometimes there was a fire of holy anger
G D/F# Em7
In Jesus' eyes
Asus D
But the eyes that saw hope in the hopeless
Bm Asus Gmaj7
That saw through the fault to the need
A F#/A# Bm Asus
Are the same eyes that look down from heaven
Em7 G Asus A
Into the deepest part of you and me
Chorus:
Gmaj7 D
And his eyes are always upon us
Gmaj7 D
His eyes never close in sleep
G F# Em7 A F#/A# Bm Asus Gmaj7
And no matter where you go you will always be in his eyes
Verse 2:
Dadd9 Dmaj7 Dsus Dadd9
Sometimes his voice comes calling like rolling thunder
G D/F# Em7
Or like driving rain
Dadd9 Dmaj7 Dsus Dadd9
And sometimes his voice is quiet and we start to wonder
G D/F# Em7
If he knows our pain
Asus D
But he who spoke peace to the water
Bm Asus Gmaj7
Cares more for our heart than the waves
A F#/A# Bm Asus
And the voice that once said you're forgiven
Em7 G Asus A Bsus B
Still says you're forgiven today, today
KEY CHANGE EVERYBODY
Eno3 Emaj7 Esus E
Sometimes I look above me when the stars are shining
A E/G# F#m
And I feel so small
Eno3 Emaj7 Esus E
How could the God of heaven and all creation
A E/G# F#m
Know I'm here at all
Bsus B Esus E
But then in the silence he whispers
C#m Bsus A
My child I created you too
B G#/C C#m Bsus
And you're my most precious creation
F#m A Asus A
I even gave my Son for you
[out of key change, back into chorus]
