Eric Clapton Holy Mother with Guitar Chords Lyrics
Holy Mother (Eric Clapton Stephen Bishop) (Guitar Chords included YouTube edits all spacing sorry about that part) G C G Holy Mother, where are you? Em D G Tonight I feel broken in two. G C G I've seen the stars fall from the sky. Em D G Holy mother, can't keep from crying. C G Oh I need your help this time Em D G Get me through this lonely night. C G Tell me please which way to turn D C To find myself again. Holy mother, hear my prayer, Somehow I know you're still there. Send me please some peace of mind; Take away this pain. Bm G I can't wait, I can't wait, C D I can't wait any longer. Bm G I can't wait, I can't wait, C D I can't wait for you. Holy mother, hear my cry, I've cursed your name a thousand times. I've felt the anger running through my soul; All I need is a hand to hold. Oh I feel the end has come, No longer my legs will run. You know I would rather be In your arms tonight. When my hands no longer play, My voice is still, I fade away. Holy mother, then I'll be Lying in, safe within your arms.

The Sky is Cryin
Playing in this tune is inspired by a combo of SRV, Clapton...and dare i say it... John Mayer. 30th Street Strat with antiquity pickups through a TS9 and maxon delay to a '64 vibroverb.I was tempted to crop this because of all the stupid faces i made...i guess blues will do that do ya.
