[Bbm]
You are the light of the world!
[Eb] You are the [Db] light [Bb] of the world!
[Eb] [A]
[C] But if that light is under a bushel, brrr, it's lost something kinda crucial.
[Eb] You've got to [Ab] stay bright to [Db] be the [Eb] light of the world!
You are the [Eb] salt of the earth!
[Eb] You are [Ab] the [F] salt of [Bb] the earth!
But [E] if [Cm] that salt has lost its [F] flavor, it ain't [Eb] got much in its favor.
You can't have [Ab] that fault and [Db] be the salt of [Eb] the earth!
So [Gm] let your [C] light [F] so shine before men!
Let your [Fm] [Bb] light [Eb] so shine, [Bbm] so [Gm] that they [C] might know [F] some kindness again!
[E] We all need help [Bb] to feel fine!
Let's have some [C] wine!
[Eb] You are the [Am] city [Eb] of God!
[Am] [Eb] You [Ab] are the [Dm] city [Bb] of God!
[E] But [Cm] if that city's on a [F] hill, it's kinda hard to [Eb] hide it well.
You've got [Ab] to stay pretty [Db] in the city [Eb] of God!
[Gm] So let your [C] light so [F] shine before men!
[Fm] Let your [Bb] light so [Eb]
shine, [Bbm] so [Gm] that they [C] might know [F] some kindness [E] again!
[Ab] We [Bb] all need help to feel fine!
Let's have some [Gm] wine!
[Eb] You are the light of the world!
[A] [Eb] You are the [Dm] light [Bb] of the world!
[Eb] [Em] [Cm] But Paul's [F] candlestick ain't much good [Eb] without a wing.
You've got to [Ab] be bright to [Db] be the light of [Eb] the world!
