Wonderful Tonight tab - eric clapton

From: ichou@acs2.bu.edu (Ivans Chou)


There were a few replies to me for the tab of Wonderful Tonight, so I typed it up
last night, and I figured I might as well post it.

The following is MY rendition of Eric Clapton's Wonderful Tonight's guitar
solos/licks as it almost is on the 24 Nights album.  See my post of the chords
for this song to see where these things go.  Note values(durations) were not
included, because I can't figure them out.  I just go by feel, and I suggest
people listen to the tape/cd and determine how this should sound (and make the
appropriate modifications as necessary).


Wonderful Tonight

Guitar theme (can be played 8va higher if you have 24 frets on your guitar, you

Eric Clapton- Wonderful tonight (with lyrics)
It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear. She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair. And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?" And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight." We go to a party and everyone turns to see This beautiful lady that's walking around with me. And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?" And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight." I feel wonderful because I see The love light in your eyes. And the wonder of it all Is that you just don't realize how much I love you. It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head, So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed. And then I tell her, as I turn out the light, I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight. Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."
