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
|-----0-----0-3-0-0-0-0-0---0-|--0------0---------0---0---|
|-----1-----1-1-1-1-1-1-1---1-|--1------1---------0h1-0h1-|
|-----2-----2-2-2-2-2-2-2---0-|--2------2---------2---2---|
|-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)
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------0--|------0-----0------0-0----------|
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------0--|------0-----0------0-0----------|
|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|-----2----2--(2)----2--2--2--------2--|------2-----2------2-2--0--2--3-|
|-0-0----------------------------------|---0-----------0-0--------------|
|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------|

(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-----|
|-----2----2--(2)----2--2--2--------2--|------2-----2------2-2-----|
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------0--|------0-----0------0-0-----|
|-----0----0--(0)----0--0--0--------0--|------0-----0------0-0--3--|
|-----2----2--(2)----2--2--2--------2--|------2-----2------2-2-----|
|-3-3-3----3--(3)----3--3--3--------3--|---3--3-----3--3-3-3-3-----|

C-F-G chord throughout ---------->
|-1------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|-1------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|-0-------------(etc)------------------|--------------------------------|
|-3------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------|

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-----|
|-----------------------------------0--|------0-----0------0-0-----|
|-----2----2--(2)----2--2--2--------0--|------0-----0------0-0--3--|
|-0-0-------------------------------2--|------2-----2------2-2-----|
|-----------------------------------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)




Good Luck!
