Composer: Sam Phillips
Album: Raising Sand
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
 			     
Strange things are happening every day
           		      (Walking Bass , , )
I hear the music up above my head
	   			 
Though the sight of my heart has left me again,
       	
I hear music up above

VERSE2
		    
Secrets are written in the sky
					  (Walking Bass , , )
Looks like I’ve lost the love I’ve never found
	   		     
Though the sound of hope has left me again,
       	
I hear music up above

CHORUS:
			    
Standing in my broken heart all night long
				    
Darkness held me like a friend when love wore off
				   
Looking for the lamb that’s hidden in the cross
	     	     (Bass (on the  string) , )
The finder’s lost
	    
I know I’ve loved you too much
	   		    
I’ll go on alone to get through

SOLO on Verse Chords:

VERSE 3:
 		       
I hear Rosetta singing in the night
	  					     (Bass , , )
Echoes of light that shine like stars after they’re gone
			    
Tonight she’s my guide as I go on alone
	          
With the music up above

SOLO on Verse Chords and on the last Cm
