Person: Andy Threadgold song: Blue Eyes Blue artist: Eric (Master & God) Clapton tab: The The song goes as follows Verse: B F# A#m E(4th fret) I thought that you'd been loving me B F# A#m E(open position) In your eyes I thought I saw my heaven B F# A#M E B F# E But now my heavens gone away and I'm out in the cold Pre chorus: B(7th) But you were only playing B F#(6th) E(4th) F# You were only playing with my heart B I was never waiting B F#(6th fret) E(4th) F# I was never waiting for the tears to start Chorus: Asus4 E(m) F#m D5 It was you, who put the clouds around me Asus4 E F#m D5 It was you, who made the tears fall down Asus4 E F#m D5 Only you, who put these clouds around me Asus4 E F#m D5 It was you, It was you, who made my blue eyes blue Asus4 E F#m D Asus4 Oh oh, never should have trusted you I thought that I'd be all you need In your eyes I thought I saw forever And now forever's come and gone And I'm still here alone pre chorus: You had me believing You had me believing in a life I could never see it I could never see it till I saw good bye It was you....etc This song has a pretty tricky fingerpicked rhythm, especially on the pre chorus where you have to slide down the fretboard playing the chords in their barred C shapes in a fluid motion. For all the eric anoraks like myself, the rhythm is like that that he uses on Brokenhearted when played live (eg Music for Monserrat) For the authentic tone, go and buy a 000-28EC Martin Acoustic, according to Eric they are the best acoustic guitars ever made. I have one and I agree. Comments complaints and suggestions to Andy. [email protected] Cheers
