The Following is my best guess at "Sister" by Lenny Kravitz, an excellent
tune off his new album, "Are You Gonna Go My Way":
Verse, repeat until G comes
Fmaj7 C

|-3---3-----3-3-3-3-3-3-3---2-|---------------------------|
|---------------------------3-|------3------3--3----------|
|-----------------------------|---------------------------|
E-A-B weird chord (Don't forget to mute the G)

(Repeat x3, but....)
On "And he stole you're only heart" instead of going to E-A-B, go to:

G
|-----2----2--(2)----2--2--2--------2--|------2-----2------2-2-----|

Back to E-A-B Then to G again
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------2--|------2-----2------2-2-----|
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------0--|------0-----0------0-0-----|

|-----------------------------------3--|---3--3-----3--3-3-3-3-----|
Now, play that progression through the first two verses,
At the end of the second verse, the E-A-B to G continues
through that long instrumental part, until you get to the
Bridge:
F----------------C-----------------G-------See Below
If they Knock on your Door... You Already gave
:*) Trust me-->) |--0
|--3
|--4
|--5
|---
|---
F-------------C--------------G---------------STAY ON G
You Don't need no more of what's ailing ya'
(Repeat for next part of bridge)
When you get to "America....," play
E-A-B then Fmaj7 (instead of G)
Play the third verse like the first two, then the end
just like the bridge.....
NOTE: BE CAREFUL OF THE RHYTHM.... Every other chord
starts on the 4th beat of the measure, and lasts for 5 beats, not 4
For example, for the Fmaj7 and C in the verses, you play
Fmaj7 for 1-2-3 and C for 4-1-2-3-4....
The best way to get this down is to play along with the CD (or tape)
