------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crucify Your Mind - Sixto Rodriguez ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Christian E-mail: chrkorped@gmail.com Great song. I found a better way to play this than the tabs that were already on UG, and thought I'd share it with you guys. I believe, that with this tab you can play very close to the original song, without being a guitar god in any way. Listen to the song and figure out the strumming pattern, it's real easy. I didn't know what the sus-variations of the Amaj7 and F#m chords are called, so I just named them "Amaj7" and "F#m". See the diagram below. Have fun Tuning:standard Chords used: A Asus4 Amaj7 "Amaj7" F#m "F#m" E Asus2 e|---0----0-----0-----0------2-----2-----0-----0-----------------------------------| B|---2----3-----2-----3------2-----3-----0-----0-----------------------------------| G|---2----2-----1-----1------2-----2-----1-----2-----------------------------------| D|---2----2-----2-----2------4-----4-----2-----2-----------------------------------| A|---0----0-----0-----0------4-----4-----2-----0-----------------------------------| E|---x----x-----x-----x------2-----2-----0-----0-----------------------------------| Intro: A-Asus4-A, Amaj7-"Amaj7"-Amaj7, F#m-"F#m"-F#m, E x 2 Verse: A Asus4 A Was it a huntsman or a player Amaj7 "Amaj7" Amaj7 That made you pay the cost F#m "F#m" F#m That now assumes relaxed positions E A And prostitutes your loss?
