Wonderful Tonight - Eric Clapton
This is a really nice song with a good melody. I spent quite long on it, but its quite a
song. I listened to it through and played it along a few times and it's PERFECT,
to me. I can see if it really is once it's rated.
PLEASE RATE THIS TAB!

It’s late in the evening

Do I look alright?

And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight

How to play

Good effort, but overall wrong. The main theme is played on the B string at the 8th/10th fret. Same note, different sound. Also, during the verses that first D is actually a Bm, specifically played as: xx4230. All the chords are picked with an open high E string, except fo the bridge.
But you have a good ear!

i play the riff on 8th/10th aswell but playin it here sounds fine, not bad effort on tab but there r a few chords missin.
before every Em there should be a G then and F#m, so it goes G F#m Em. instead of playin the F#m i just play the 2nd fret on the top string. Also on the bridge it does not start with a D chord, it goes straigt from the verse ending on G to the bridge begining on C, also on the bridge the D in between the G and Em should be an F#m as above.
