Zsolt Galambos10th June 2010Very cool cover, Ivan!
Daniel Realpe8th June 2010so simple yet so much feeling,
I noticed you don't do strict alternate picking in the arpeggios. So we can break the rules when needed.

In this lesson we are covering Clapton's famous ballad. The form of the song is pretty basic, it has very similar parts throughout the song, so learning it should be easy, and playing it should be fun! :)
The song has one lead lick that is covered in video 2, and that repeats throughout the song. Videos 3 and 4 cover rhythm parts, that contain 3 chords (plus 3 more in the video 4). All the chords use open string position, so they should be easy for playing.
Here is the whole song structure:
- lead riff (video 2)
- verse 1 (video 3)
- chorus (video 4)
- lead riff (video 2)
- verse 2 (video 3)
- chorus (video 4)
- bridge (video 4)
- lead riff (video 2)
- verse 3 (video 3)
- chorus (video 4)
- lead riff (video 2)Here is the list of chords:
Jump to start: Home or `s` , you can also click/tap the lesson part again (the numbers above player)
Go to next part: PageUP or End.
Volume: ArrowUp / ArrowDown keys
Go to any part: Number keys (combinations also possible)
Pause or play: `k` or space key
Fullscreen: `f`, esc to close
Increase / decrease speed : `+` or `-`
