Subject: Chords Add: THE QUIET FAITH OF MAN (Bill Staines)
Here are the chords I use, in G...


(G)One day a babe was born along the(C) highway
A (D7)tiny hlpless thing upon the (G(sand
And an Okie with a dream out on the (C)byway
(D7)Took the babe and held it proudly in his (G)hand.

(G)And the woman smiled a gentle smile of (C)knowing
And (D7)whispered something softly in its (G)ear,
Perhaps a little prayer to help the (C)growing,
(d7)Perhpas a word of comfort through the (G)fear.

CHORUS
You can (C)trust the moon to move the might (G)oceans.
You can (C)trust the (Am)sun to shine upon the (D7)land.
You take the (C)little that you (D7)know
And you (G)do the best you (Em)can.
And you (C)see the Am)rest with the (D7)quiet faith of (G)man.

I add bass runs from C to Am and G to Em in the chorus.
