Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us


Chris Fuller did this marvelous tab for Plant & Krauss' take on this great song. Chords are the same for Sam Phillip's (I think better) version. Verse 1: Cm G7 Strange things are happening every day C Fm (Walking Bass F, G, Ab) I hear the music up above my head Ab Cm Though the sight of my heart has left me again, G Cm I hear music up above VERSE2 Cm G7 Secrets are written in the sky C Fm (Walking Bass F, G, Ab) Looks like I’ve lost the love I’ve never found Ab Cm Though the sound of hope has left me again, G Cm I hear music up above CHORUS: C Em Standing in my broken heart all night long Am F Darkness held me like a friend when love wore off C Em Looking for the lamb that’s hidden in the cross Am F The finder’s lost Dm C I know I’ve loved you too much F C F G I’ll go on alone to get through SOLO on Verse Chords: VERSE 3: Cm G7 I hear Rosetta singing in the night C Fm (Bass F, G, Ab) Echoes of light that shine like stars after they’re gone Ab Cm Tonight she’s my guide as I go on alone G Cm With the music up above SOLO on Verse Chords and on the last Cm
