Gospel Medley Chords by The Seekers

_ People are always asking us, why do we sing lots of gospels?
Actually, it comes from the very roots of not only folk music,
but traditional jazz, which was the music that I started out with.
And a lot of the songs that I used to sing with the jazz bands,
those same gospels ended up as B-sides on the Seekers' singles.
So if any of you have got singles still, you'll recognise a couple of them in this bracket.
One of them is the B-side of I'll Never Find Another You.
That's Open Up Them Pearly Gates. _ _
_ _ Anyone got a scratched old single of 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.
We did this album in our lunch hours, Sunday mornings, in secret.
Everything had to be done in secret.
It couldn't even go on television, because Keith worked for the government radio station
and he wasn't supposed to have a second job.
_ _ _ _ [Ab] The terrible truth was I had to have a second job because I worked for the ABC.
