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, G#)
I hear the music up above my head
G# 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, G#)
Looks like I’ve lost the love I’ve never found
G# 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, G#)
Echoes of light that shine like stars after they’re gone

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

These chords are 100% accurate for the Plant/Krauss version, but Sam Phillips plays it three half-steps down from this, in the key of Am. Here's a video of her performing it on NPR to back up my claim: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_1gEKfwe0k
