 Subject: TAB:   Have a Little Faith in me, by John Hiatt 
  
 The changing chord shapes and progessions in this song really make you 
 understand why it should be played on the piano rather than the guitar, 
 but dammit, this is RMMGT and OLGA, not RMMPT and OLPA. 
  
 This should sound like something vaguely resembling what's on the CD. 
 Note that the lyrics are not properly lined up in synch with the tab, 
 and I suspect that the timing on "0 24 5 7" and "0 242 6" is a little 
 off.  So, don't take it too literally or you'll end up looking like 
 a musician in a Japanese Godzilla movie. 
  
 For further assistance, buy the CD, and listen to the song.  All will 
 be clear, and you'll get 9 other really good songs as a bonus. 
  
  
 "Have a Little Faith in Me", by John Hiatt, from the album "Bring the

 When your secret heart 
 Cannot speak so easily 
 Come here darlin', from a whisper start 
 To have a little faith in me 
  
 And when your back's against the wall 
 Just turn around and you will see 
 I will catch, I will catch your fall, baby 
 So have a little faith in me
