Here's my take of the Trio version. It is much the same as Mac's below, only for 
5-string banjo. (For guitar, play B7 for B--it's a lot easier. And disregard note about 
being in G tuning. This only applies for banjo.) Regards, Pete Curry
LITTLE LIGHT (Ab--Capo 1, G tuning, chords in the key of G/G tuning group)

(G)This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it (G7)shine.
(C)This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it (G)shine. 
This little light of (Em)mine, (B)I'm gonna let it (C)shine.
Every (G)day, every (C)day, every (G)day, every (Em)day, 
Gonna (A)let my (D7)little light (G)shine.

(REPEAT)

On (G)Monday, give me the gift of love, 
On (C)Tuesday, peace came [C7]from above,
On (G)Wednesday, told me to [Em]watch and pray, 
On (A)Thursday, told me just (D7)what to say,
On (G)Friday, sent me (G7)down some faith, 
On (C)Saturday, gave me a [C7]little more grace,
On (G)Sunday, gave me the (Em)power divine,* 
just to (A)let my (D7)little light (G)shine.

Etc.

[ ]=optional

*Try also:
On (G)Sunday, gave me the (B)power di-(Em)vine

Note: This song is titled "This Little Night" [sic.] on the "College Concert" LP jacket 
I have, and as "This Little Light" on the label. This discrepancy is not mentioned in the 
book "The Kingston Trio On Record."
