(Gtr.2 plays intro, with a few minor changes)

[E] Just a tour[A]ride, on [C#m] the run [B] 
[E] How did I [A] get here, what [C#m] have I done [B]
[E] When will [A] all my hopes [C#m] arise [B] 
[E] And how will I [A] know him, 
[C#m] when I look in [B] my father's eyes [E]

CHORUS:

[E] Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A] [C#m] When I look in [B] my father's eyes[E]
[E]Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A]    [Bm7] [A] [E] [F#m] [B] 

VERSE 2:

[B] Then the light begins [F#] to shine [B]
[C#m] And I hear those [C#m7] ancient [F#] lullabyes [B] 
[B] And as I [C#m7] watch the [F#] seedling grow, [B]
[C#m] I feel my heart [Bm7] start to [F#m] overflow [E] (Fill 2)

[E] Where do I [A] find [C#m] the words to say [B] 
[E] And how do I [A] teach him, what [C#m] do we play [B]
[E] Bit by [A] bit, [C#m] I realize [B] 
[E] That's when I [A] need them, 
[C#m] That's when I need [B] my father's eyes [E]

CHORUS:

[E] Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A] [C#m] That's when I need [B] my father's eyes[E]

VERSE 3:

[B] When the jagged edge [F#] appears [B]
[C#m] Through the [C#m7] distant [F#] clouds of tears [B] 
[B] And, I'm like a bridge [C#m7] that was [F#] washed away [B]
[C#m] My foundations were [Bm7] made of [F#m] clay [E] (Fill 2)

[E] And as my [A] soul [C#m] slides down to die [B] 
[E] How could I [A] lose him, what [C#m] did I try [B]
[E] Bit by [A] bit, [C#m] I realize [B] 
[E] That he was here [A] with me, 
[C#m] and I looked into [B] my father's eyes [E]

CHORUS:

[E] Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A] [C#m] I looked into [B] my father's eyes[E]
[E]Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A] [C#m] [B] my father's eyes
[E] Look into [A] my father's [C#m] eyes [B]
My father's eyes [E] [A] [C#m] I looked into [B] my father's eyes[E]*

*Fade out


I decided to post this tab, when I saw the other tab of 
"My father�s eyes". I hope you�ll think this one is better.
It was hard to transcribe it, but if you think it�s hard to play,
follow my ordinary advice.
        "-If you got the cd, listen to the song, and play!"

Enjoy! John.H (Visit http://user.tninet.se/~jax696n/ for more clapton tabs)

Eric Clapton - "My Fathers Eyes" acoustic cover
Clapton doesn't play it this way at all! Oh well, I still like my arrangement. Shoulda looked for the video first, I guess. Search for the unplugged version, it's really good. PS This sounds like crap! Why has YouTube changed it's audio encoding so everything sound so awful? My beautiful Taylor accoustic sounds like a cigar box.
