D5             D5           G5        E5 
A baby child is born along the highway 
  A5           G5              D5 
A tiny little thing upon the land 
   D5             D5              G5     E5 
An okie with his dreams out on the byway 
A5              G5  A5        D5  
Lifts the tiny baby in his hand 
    D5              D5            G5       E5 
The woman smiles a little smile of knowing 
    A5                  G5             D5 
And whispers something softly in his ear 
    D5            D5               G5       E5  
Perhaps a little prayer to help the growing  
   A5              G5       A5           D5 
Perhaps a word of comfort through the fears 


    G5         G5    E5       A5       D5 
You trust the moon to move the mighty ocean 
    G5         G5   E5             A5 
You trust the sun to shine upon the land 
    G5               A5            D5               G5 
The little that you know and you do the best you can 
    A5                                    D5 
You see the rest with the quiet faith of man  
 
 
A tractor makes its way along the fence line 
And drops the seeds precisely in a row 
If the rains are kind and the winds don't take the topsoil 
Before too long the crops will start to show 
The farmer sees the fields around him growin' 
He whispers something low beneath his breath 
Perhaps a little prayer to help the growin' 
Perhaps a word of thanks for all the rest 
 
Chorus 
 
There's a storm tossed ship tonight out on the ocean 
There's a soul somewhere adrift out on the blue 
There's a dreamer with his eyes upon the heavens 
They're all looking for a way to make it through 
 
Chorus
