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
