Lyrics

[Intro]
(layered guitars — warm, driving Boston tone)
(organ underneath, clean drums enter)
[Verse 1]
New face in the hallway
Sophomore year, still cold
One guy from the football team
Looked at me and just said
“Hey man…
There are pretty girls
At my church”
[Pre-Chorus]
I won’t lie —
It wasn’t the sermon that got me
It was the pretty girls
And God just smiled and said
“Good enough…
Let’s go”
[Chorus]
Quiet faith and pretty girls
That’s how the story starts
Quiet faith and pretty girls
And a family with wide open hearts
They never preached, they never pushed
They just drove me every Sunday
Pulled me in, fed me at their table
Like a son
Quiet faith and pretty girls
Changed the whole direction
Of everything I’d become
Quiet faith
And pretty girls
And a God who uses both
To get things done
[Verse 2]
Wednesday nights, Sunday mornings
Backseat of their car
They never asked for my story
They just made room for who I was
A Bible with a photograph
Of Oral Roberts on the cover
Handed to a kid
Who’d never owned one
No fire and brimstone, no pressure
Just love and consistency
They planted something in me
They didn’t even know was growing
[Pre-Chorus]
I won’t lie —
I wasn’t hunting for Jesus
I was seventeen
And there were pretty girls
In that place
Good enough
[Chorus]
Quiet faith and pretty girls
That’s how the story starts
Quiet faith and pretty girls
And a family with wide open hearts
They never preached, they never pushed
They just drove me every Sunday
Pulled me in, fed me at their table
Like a son
Quiet faith and pretty girls
Built the foundation
Of everything I’d become
Quiet faith
And pretty girls
And a God who knew exactly
What He was doing
[Guitar Solo]
(Tom Scholz melodic, soaring, joyful — 16 bars)
[Bridge]
Years later at his father’s funeral
I stood up and told the room
What that family did for a lost kid
His own kids smiled through tears
Because they finally understood
What their grandfather really was
A man of quiet faith
Who drove a teenager to church
For the pretty girls
And trusted God
With the rest
[Final Chorus – bigger, full harmonies]
Quiet faith and pretty girls
That’s how the story starts
Quiet faith and pretty girls
And a God with a sense of humor
And the biggest heart
They never preached, they never pushed
They just loved me like a son
Quiet faith and pretty girls
Changed the whole direction
Of my life
And forty years later
I still believe
God uses everything —
Even pretty girls
To get His work done
[Outro]
(guitars cycling the main riff, warm layered harmonies)
Quiet faith…
Pretty girls…
God uses everything
