Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us
by Sam Phillips
(as covered by Robert Plant & Alison Krauss in Raising Sand)
(transposed a minor step lower)
Just strum, strum strum--no picking (see tabs, below)
(just the bridge, sorry, I'm too tired)
(but it's the part where Robert comes in, anyway, together, their voices are beautiful!)
Sing "standing" lyric in the key of C: B-string, 1st fret.

CLooking for the lamb that's hidden in the Emcross
The finder's Flost.
