Tabbed by Chris Fullmer
Notes: Sorry it’s not perfect. I don’t often listen to music and transcribe it. I
just download the tab or chords. So this is my first submission of a tab – go easy on me.
noticed I couldn’t find this tab anywhere, not for the Plant/Krauss version or the
(which I have not heard – yet). These chords do not compare to the intricate tab that
deserves, but hopefully this will be enough for people to go on to come up with their
arrangements. I'm having a hard time getting this tab to look right in preview mode on
site. I had all the chords lined up to the words where they should change. So if they
not lined up correctly, you'll have to figure the timing out on your own. I hope
comes out looking ok.
Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us
VERSE1
Cm G7
Strange things are happening every day
C Fm (Walking Bass F, G, G#)
I hear the music up above my head
Cm G#
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, G#)
Looks like I’ve lost the love I’ve never found
Cm G#
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 (Bass (on the D string) F, D)
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, G#)
Echoes of light that shine like stars after they’re gone
Cm G#
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
Real good job-- just one thing; I thought maybe Cm and G# should be switched in the third line of the verse.
Thanks for the chords.
Hey, glad someone found it and was able to play through it! I struggled with getting the chords and verses lined up. I need to take a tab publishin 101 class.
As for the chord swapping, yeah I can see that. I think it sounds nice either way, and my ear can't quite differentiate, but it definitely works how you posted it. So play how it sounds best to you, I like both. Thanks for checking this tab out.
Great tab!
I agree with wikkik that Cm and G# should be swapped.
Apart from that, pretty spot on.
