android.database.CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 0 requested, with a size of 0

Error saying that you have cursor on 0th index in 0length of array and 
String path = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA));
 

I am getting this error while trying to open the image in android in below Method : 

//method to get the file path from uri
public String getPath(Uri uri) {
    Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null);
    cursor.moveToFirst();
    String document_id = cursor.getString(0);
    document_id = document_id.substring(document_id.lastIndexOf(":") + 1);
    cursor.close();

    cursor = getContentResolver().query(
            MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
            null, MediaStore.Images.Media._ID + " = ? ", new String[]{document_id}, null);
    cursor.moveToFirst();
    String path = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA));
    cursor.close();

    return path;
}
