asking is why do [Abm] we sing lots of gospels?
Actually it comes from the very roots of not
only [Db] folk music but traditional [B] jazz, which was the music that I started out with.
And
a lot of [Ab] the songs that I used to sing with the jazz bands, those same gospels [Ebm] ended up
as B-sides on the Seekers' [Gbm] singles.
So if any of you [Bm] have got singles still, [Abm] you'll
recognise a couple of them in this bracket.
One of them is the [G] B-side of I'll Never Find
Another You, that's Open Up Them Pearly [N] Gates.
Anyone got a scratched old single of a car
and the carnival is over?
Well, you'll all know another one then, We Shall Not Be Moved.
But first we're going to do a very favourite track from the very first album that we ever
made.
And we did this album in our lunch hours, Sunday mornings, in secret.
Everything had
to be done in secret.
Couldn't even go on television, because Keith worked for the government
radio station [Cm] and he [Gm] wasn't supposed to have a second job.
[Abm]
[E] The terrible truth was I had
to have [G] a second job because I worked for the ABC.

[G] Shine my light both bright and clear, [Em] shine my light both far and near.
In every dark corner that I [A] [D]
[D] light shine.
[G] This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.
[C] This little light of mine, I'm [Em] gonna let [G] it shine.
This little light of mine, [B] I'm gonna let [Em] it shine.

[D] Come and take a few lessons [A] from me
Get yourself prepared for Judgement [E] Day
Hallelujah, [A] hallelujah
When you hear the trumpets [D] blast
Then you [B] know you're home at [A] last
Open [E] up them pearly [A] gates for me
[Ab] Why [A] don't you
Open up them pearly [D] gates
Open up them pearly [A] gates
Open up them pearly [E] gates for me Hallelujah, [A] allelujah
