Biography:
At least five artists share the name Rodriquez.
1) Sixto Diaz Rodriguez (also known as Rodriguez or as Jesus Rodriguez) is an American folk musician, born in Detroit, Michigan on July 10, 1942. He was named 'Sixto' (pronounced seex-toe) because he was the sixth child in his family. Rodriguez's parents were middle-class immigrants from Mexico, who left in the 1920s. In most of his songs he takes a political stance on the cruelties facing the inner city poor.

Sixto Rodriguez - Crucify Your Mind
Tabbed by: Jorn Seubers
I suggest a different chord progression than the existing tab.
There is definitive bassline drop from A to G# to G, which is reflected
by using the chords A (002220), Amaj7 (002120), A7 (002020).
The transition E to A is quick (only catch a couple of E bass notes).
[Intro]
|A |Amaj7 |A7 |E A | x2
[Verse 1]
A
Was it a huntsman or a player
Amaj7
That made you pay the cost
A7
That now assumes relaxed positions
E A
And prostitutes your loss?
[Verse 2]
A
Were you tortured by your own thirst
Amaj7
In those pleasures that you seek
A7
That made you Tom the curious
E A
That makes you James the weak?
[Interlude]
|A |Amaj7 |A7 |E A |
[Chorus]
E A
And you claim you got something going
E A
Something you call unique
D A
But I've seen your self-pity showing
E A
As the tears rolled down your cheeks.
[Interlude]
|A |Amaj7 |A7 |E A |
[Verse 3]
A
Soon you know I'll leave you
Amaj7
And I'll never look behind
A7
'Cos I was born for the purpose
E A
That crucifies your mind.
[Verse 4]
A
So come, convince your mirror.
Amaj7
As you've always done before
A7
Giving substance to shadows
E A
Giving substance ever more.
[Interlude]
|A |Amaj7 |A7 |E A |
[Chorus]
E A
And you assume you got something to offer
E A
Secrets shiny and new
D A
But how much of you is repetition
E A
That you didn't whisper to him too.
[Outro]
