HELLO OLD FRIEND
Eric Clapton
 
No Reason To Cry
1976
 
[Intro]
G   D   C   Em   D
G   D   C   Em   D
 
[Verse 1]
   G     D         C          Em     G
As I was strolling down the garden path
        D      C       Em       G
I saw a flower glowing in the dark
             D      C      Em    G
It looked so pretty and it was unique
         D         C        Em      G
I had to bend down just to have a peek
 
[Chorus]
          Bm7               Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again
          Bm7
Hello old friend  (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again
 
[Interlude]
G   D   C   Em   D
G   D   C   Em   D
 
[Verse 2]
I saw you walking underneath the stars
I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If I got out and walked to where you are
 
[Chorus]
          Bm7               Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again
          Bm7
Hello old friend  (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again
 
[Solo]
G   D   C   Em   D
G   D   C   Em   D
 
[Verse 3]
An old man passed me on the street today
I thought I knew him but I couldn't say
I stopped to think if I could place his frame
When he tipped his hat I knew his name
 
[Chorus] (x2)
          Bm7               Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again
          Bm7
Hello old friend  (hello old friend)
     C              D             G
It's really good to see you once again

Good tab. I would like to suggest the following changes: INTRO: G D C Em/G D G D C Em/G D G D C Em G As I was strolling down the garden path D C Em G I saw a flower glowing in the dark D C Em G It looked so pretty and it was unique D C Em G I had to bend down just to have a peek CHORUS Bm7 Am7 Hello old friend (hello old friend) C D G It's really good to see you once again Bm7 Am7 Hello old friend (hello old friend) C It's really good to see you once G D C Em/G D again G D C Em/G D

hi yeah these Tabs are pretty good. the second line in the chorus, instead of a G I use a E minor on the last phrase. that sounds better to me but I must admit I have not heard this song for a long time

MERCI DE REMETTRE LES ACCORDS A CHAQUE COUPLET CAR CEST IMPOSSIBLE DE LES REPETER SANS LES VOIR ECRITS
