I decided to post this tab, when I saw the other tab of 
"My father´s eyes". I hope you´ll think this one is better.
It was hard to transcribe it, but if you think it´s hard to play,
follow my ordinary advice.
        "-If you got the cd, listen to the song, and play!"


Enjoy! John.H (Visit http://user.tninet.se/~jax696n/ for more clapton tabs)
