Wonderful Tonight Lesson - Eric Clapton

Wonderful Tonight, from Clapton's Slowhand album. Although it sounds like a sappy love song, it was written while Clapton was losing his patience, waiting for his wife to get ready for a party.

Lyrics:

Its late in the evening
Shes wonderin what clothes to wear
She puts on her makeup
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, Do I look alright?
And I say Yes, you look wonderful tonight.

We go to the party,
Everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady, thats walkin around with me
And then she asks me, Do you feel alright?
And I say Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.

I feel wonderful, because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all,
Is that you just dont realize
How much I love you

Its time to go home now,
And Ive got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say My darling, you were wonderful tonight.

Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight.

Thanks, ttpiett. That's why I shot close ups, so you can just follow along. Learn the rythm first, then the lead. Give it a try. Its much easier to learn than using tabs!

[ttpiett]

Thanks and keep up the good work! I'm finally picking up the guitar after a long hiatus of taking care of the babies and back on track! It is sooo much easier to follow along that tabs! Thanks again!
