Classical Gas Chords & Tabs
CLASSICAL GAS
ERIC CLAPTON VERSION
This the first tab i have made so bear with it.
The sections are seperated in an odd way, it doesnt indicate bars exactly, rather individual parts to
learn to make it easier to take in. Above each section is a chord shape to help figure it out, its not
precise but it helps.
Timing values im not so sure about, best thing to do would be to listen to the finished product and
play by ear.
99 percent credit should go to www.guitartutoronline.com
I learnt to play this from their website, for free. but their tabs were handwritten and so i made my
own.
This Tab is accurate to the way I learnt it, ive not mastered it yet so its as accurate as i am. lol
check their site, they have free video lessons which are awesome and explain everything......
