Love on my mind, I used to be
Living it up, fancy free,
Then one night it came to an end;
I met that girl and the trouble began.

Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?
Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?

I was hooked with just one look,
Easy prey, child’s play.
I knew this girl was no one night stand;
Felt just like putty in her hands.

Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?
Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?

Got no answers, got no cure,
But one thing I know for sure:
This is the girl, she’s the one.
She makes it so hard for me to run.

Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?
Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?

”People tell me!”
You might as well face it, she’s covered all the bases.

Intro: C# , A , B , G#m (4 times)

All alone had to talk about it
Like a two-edged sword, he touched you and he stabs me
All along I knew you were a phony girl.
Sit behind the mask where you control your world.

Yesterday he had you in his arms
When I’m holding you I feel his bitter charms
I can’t judge what you do to me.
Camouflage the truth, Indulge your fantasy.

Who do you love? Is it me now?
Is it him babe? I don’t know.
Who do you love? Is it me babe?
Is it him now? I don’t know.

There is nothing in your eyes; that’s the way you cry.
All is grand, all is bright. You’re just studying my mind.
There is nothing in your eyes; that’s the way you cry.
All is grand, all is bright. You’re just studying my mind.

Was I invited to your masquerade?
Well the party’s over so now take off your face
You say love but it’s hard to see
When you’re in his arms throwing rocks at me.

Who do you love? Is it me now?
Is it him babe? I don’t know.
Who do you love? Is it me babe?
Is it him now? I don’t know.

Solo over Amaj7 and B (with the two others chords Eb, D) and the same chords as
the intro.

I walk around stuck within my gloom
When I come to you and sit in your room
Truth is new , I have not a trace
Take off your mask so I can see your face.

Who do you love? Is it me now?
Is it him babe? I don’t know.
Who do you love? Is it me babe?
Is it him now? I don’t know.

Outro: C# , A , B , G#m

There’s only keyboards on the real song but you can play fingerpicking instead.

Intro (Barre Chords)

[A-D-Bm7]
Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.
Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.

When I think back, your love was like the sun
And I don’t remember no dark days, remember the warm warm fun.

Further on down the road baby, you will accompany me.
Fools in life, mmmm woman than a happy fool I’d rather be.

Oh baby I’ll be glad to learn from you,
Darlin’ I know you will be glad to learn from me.
And if we get down and things get sad,
We can cheer up eachother, and grin cuz things just ain’t that bad.

If we fools in life, a happy fool I would rather be.
Day by day, just one step, one step at a time.
Cuz woman you have given me so much,
Just to ease this stubborn little achin’ heart of mine.

I don’t care where they came from,
and I don’t care what they might say,
Woman you’ve been lovin’ in my corner, all, all the way.

Day by day, that’s the magical kind cuz it’s flowin’ all of the time.

Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me
Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me

When I look back,
your love was like the sun,
And I don’t remember any cold days,
I just remember the warm warm fun.

Further on down the road, baby,
you will accompany me.

Ohhhh Babe, ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling
ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling, ohhhh babe,
ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling, ohhhh babe,
ohhhh babe, ohhhh babe, ohhhh darling...

Without you[C/B]r wisdom, Lord, where would we be
Lost in the[C/G] wilderness, somewhere out at sea.

But you were there
Through the days of wine and madness,
When I’d always put you down.

You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.

[Instrumental]

You found t[C/B]he meaning and helped me to see
Where I was[C/G] going to all that I could be.

Without per[C/B]mission you turned the key.
You climbed[C/G] the prison wall deep inside of me.

But you were there
Through the days of wine and madness,
When I’d always put you down.

You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down.

[Instrumental]

(Verse 1)
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago
 
(Verse 2)
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago
 
(Verse 3)
Two and two is four babe, four and two is eight
Come on now darlin’, don’t you make me late
I’m cryin’ please, baby, don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago
 
(Instrumental)






 
(Verse 4)
One and one is two, two and two is four
I’m heavy loaded baby, I’m booked, I gotta go
I’m cryin’ please, baby, don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago
 
(Instrumental)






 
(Verse 5)
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago
 
(Verse 6)
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Come on, baby don’t you want to go
Back from the land of California
To my sweet home, Chicago

LYRICS:
Pretty girl, you are the light of my life
I mean my everything
You are the one I chose to make my wife
Thats why you wear my ring
And when Im feeling down and out
You are the one who will bail me out
My love will always guide me home
Pretty girl, my pretty girl
Oh pretty girl, my pretty girl
Pretty girl, dont ever say goodbye
Dont ever let me be
If you do, you know that I would die
You mean that much to me
And when Im feeling low and blue
You always know just what to do
My love will always guide me home
My pretty girl, oh pretty girl
My pretty girl, oh pretty girl
And when Im feeling down and out
Youre the one who will bail me out
My love will always guide me home
My pretty girl
Pretty girl, hear what I have to say
Its something you should know
You brought me sunshine on my darkest day
Thats why I love you so
And when my wandering day is through
Ill always hurry back home to you
My love will always guide me home
My pretty girl, oh pretty girl
My pretty girl, oh pretty girl….

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Verse main:

The verse’s and chorus follow this chord pattern.

Momma take this badge away from me
I don’t use it anymore
It’s getting dark to dark to see
Feel I’m knocking on heavens door…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Feel I’m knocking on heavens door
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
Knock knock knocking on heavens door
Knock knock knocking on heavens door

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

However, a few people have asked me to tab out
what Clapton actually plays. This is a very tricky
task, but its a combination of these chord sequences.

~~1~~

e]--3x-3x---3x----10x-10x----10x-]these 2 chords
B]--3x-3x---3x----10x-10x----10x-]stay the same,
G]--4x-4x---4x----11x-11x----11x-]but the last chord
D]--5x-5x---5x----12x-12x----12x-]E.C plays alternates
A]-------------------------------]from an Am to Cmajor
E]-3-------3-----10-------10-----]

Here’s it in tab:

~~2~~
e)–5x5x–5x-) This is the Am
B)–5x5x–5x-) Chord Clapton plays
G)–5x5x–5x-)x2
D)–7x7x–7x-)
A)–7x7x–7x-)

E]-5-----5---]

~~3~~

e]--8X-8X---8X--] This is the Cmajor
B]--8X-8X---8X--] Chord Clapton plays
G]--9X-9X---9X--]X2
D]--10-10---10--]
A]--------------]
E]-8-----8------]

Verse leads:

Just chuck these little licks in whenever you feel
there approriate.

e]-----------------------------]
B]-3-3-3-3-3-------------------]
G]-0-0-0-2-0----or--5-5-5-5-5--]
D]------------------5-5-5-7-5--]
A]-----------------------------]
E]-----------------------------]
e]--------------]
B]--------------]

G)-12~-12~-14b–) With wah

D]--------------]
A]--------------]
E]--------------]

Solo:

Ive tabbed it without using a slide, as I believe Clapton
overdubbed the slide solo with a guitar in an open tuning.
Heres how to play it in standard, not using a slide.

e]------------------------------]
B]-13b15~--13b15r13--11b12------]
G]-------------------------10b--]x2
D]------------------------------]
A]------------------------------]
E]------------------------------]
e]--------------------------------------------------]
B]-15b17--15b17--15~----15b17x--15-15b17-15b17-15~--]
G]--------------------------------------------------]
D]--------------------------------------------------]
A]--------------------------------------------------]
E]--------------------------------------------------]

theres a double tracked small section here, so just repeat
the first solo lick once.

e]---------------]

B)-6-6b8r6b8-6~~-)

G]---------------]
D]---------------]
A]---------------]
E]---------------]

~~Legend~~:

bbend
rreturn bend
xmute, or choke
~vibrato or let ring
/slide
hhammer on

~~1~~ refers to the G and D chords
~~2~~ refers to the Aminor chord
~~3~~ refers to the C chord

Now all you need to do is to match the numbers with
the chords I’ve layed out and play those sections
when the number corresponds to the chord and you’ll
be away. Chuck those leads in when you feel the
need and you’ll soon be rockin’

Just a quick note, Ive tabbed this out aimed towards
newer player’s. Thats why it might seem simplistic.

Hope it helps guys!
