Brother Love's Travellin' Salvation Show:Neil Diamond. #22 in 1969. (.) #1. D C D Hot August night and the leaves hangin' down, C D and the grass on the ground, smellin'..sweet. D C D Move up the road to the outside of town, C D and the sound of that good Gospel beat... G C Sits a ragged tent, where there ain't no trees. G C And that gospel group, tellin' you and me... Chorus: G It's Love, Brother Love's, say Brother Love's, Travellin' C D Salvation Show. (Halle! Halle!) G Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies C G D and everyone goes, cause everyone knows, Brother Love's Shows. #2. D C D Room gets suddenly still and when you'd almost bet C D you could hear yourself sweat..he walks in. D C D Eyes black as coal and when he lifts his face C D every ear in the place is on him. G C Startin' soft and slow, like a small earthquake.. G C And when he lets go, half the valley shakes! Chorus: G It's Love, Brother Love's, say Brother Love's, Travellin' C D Salvation Show. (Halle! Halle!) G Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies C G D and everyone goes, cause everyone knows, Brother Love's Shows. SPOKEN:(Ad lib.) D C D C D Brothers! (Halle-Hallelujah), I said Brothers! (Hallelujah!) D C D Now you got yourself two good hands. (Halle-Hallelujah!) D And when your brother is troubled you got to reach out your C D one hand for him. (Hallelujah!) D C D Cause that's what it's there for.(Halle, Hallelujah!) D And when your heart is troubled, you got to reach out C D your other hand. (Hallelujah!) D Reach it out to the Man up there. D C D Cause that's what He's there for.(Halle-Hallelujah!) #3. G C Take my hand in yours...walk with me this day. G C In my heart I know...I will never stray. C Halle!-Halle!-Halle!-Halle!-Halle!-Halle!-Halle!-Halle! Chorus: G It's Love, Brother Love's, say Brother Love's, Travellin' C D Salvation Show. (Halle! Halle!) G Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies C D and everyone goes... G It's Love, Brother Love, say Brother Love's Travellin' C D Salvation Show.(Halle!-Halle!) G Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies, C D and everyone goes... G It's Love, Brother Love, say Brother Love's Travellin' C D Salvation Show.(Halle!-Halle!)...(Fade.)
