                             D

                                       Bm    A
YOU CAN SEE IN HIS EYE, AS THE PEOPLE WALK BY
G                              D/F#        Em (VARIATION)
HE KNOWS THEY DON�T UNDERSTAND

                Bm                                    A

GENTLY WHISPERED HOPE

INTRO


WELL THE TRAMP STARTED TO CRY AND KEPT SAYING  WHY WHY
WHY CANT YOU SEE IM A DOWN AND OUT
IM 32 AND I GOT THIS ONE PAIR OF SHOES AND A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH

PEACE MY CHILD SALVATION IS HERE TODAY

D   G

                                D                                       
           D          D/F# G                             D
HE GOT UP TO HIS FEET AND HE SANG HALLELUJAH  PEOPLE WERE TURNING
A7                            D                  G            
                            D                         A7
AROUND IN THE STREET HE LOOKED THEM IN THE EYES AND HE SANG
         D                            Bm                               
        A             D
HALLEYUYAH THERES SOMEONE HERE YOU  GOTTA MEET,
G                   A7                    D
SOMEONE YOU GOTTA MEET


WHEN THE VAGABOND TURNED AROUND BUT WITHOUT A SOUND GABRIEL
JUST SMILED AND DISSAPPEARED WHEN HE LOOKED TO THE CROWD THEY
WERE LAUGHING OUTLOUD BUT HE COULD NOT SEE THEM FOR TEARS WHEN
HIS VISION CAME ROUND THEY WAS A YOUNG GIRL ON THE GROUND AND I
KNEW SHE WAS FINDING IT HARD TO COPE SHE NEVER WAS A FIGHTER UNTIL
HE LAYBESIDE HER AND GENTLY WHISPERED HOPE


THEY GOT UP TO THEIR FEET AND THEY SANG HALLELUJAH PEOPLE IN THE
STREET WERE TURNING AROUND,
THEY LOOKED THEM IN THE EYES AND THEY SANG HALLELUJAH OH THERES
SOMEONE HERE THAT WE HAVE FOUND
THEY SANG HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH WE ARE THE VOICES CRYING IN THE
WILDERNESS HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH THE PEOPLE IN THE STREETS STARTED 
SINS TO CONFESS AND A CHORUS OF HALLELUJAH
HALLEHYUA WE WITH A BOW AND EVERY
TURN CONFESSED AND THE VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS
CRYING THERE HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH


Hi
Just thought id post a chord structure of the song. Brad Taylors original tab was spot 
so a big thanks to him because to be honest I was struggling to work this out myself. 
the plucking around these chords can be improvised.

Foy i hope this does your beautiful song justice!

Cheers to Brad Taylor, for letting me be able to play such an amazing song!!

Any problems, criticisms or comments my email is westsidechronic@hotmail.com

Cheers
