Tears In Heaven Chords & Tabs
Artist: Eric Clapton
Song: Tears in heaven
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
So, this is my second tab here and this is for Clapton's Tears in heaven.
There are so many versions of this song and this is just one of 'em. There
are only one guitar but if you wanna play with two guitars, then other guitar
could strum chords or something like that... but, here we go, enjoy :)
