Before the Throne of God Above
Charitie Lees Bancraft
Standard Tuning: EADGBe

These are the notes of the original hymn. They can be played in most any key you want,
but I tabbed how you typically hear it. It was all done by ear pretty much. Most people
do take the key up a half step for the last verse, which literally just moves all the 
notes up a half step (down one fret).

I like to bar the bottom 4 strings on the 8th fret except for during the higher part.
There are other ways to play the exact same notes; this is just what was most comfortable
to me. If you are wanting to sing it, having someone play this along with someone else 
playing corresponding chords would probably be cool.
