I have the [C#] blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes.
I have the [F#7] blues before sunrise, tears standing in my [C#] eyes.
It was a [G#7] miserable feeling, now babe,
[F#7] A feeling I do des[C#]pise. [B] [Bb] [A] [G#]
I have to [C#] leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong.
I have to [F#7] leave you baby, because you know you done me [C#] wrong.
I'm gonna [G#7] pack up and leave you darling
[F#7] And break up my happy [C#] home. [B] [Bb] [A] [G#]
I'm gonna [C#] leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone.
I'm gonna [F#7] leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all a[C#]lone.
I'm gonna [G#7] pack up and leave you darling,

Well now [F#7] goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy [C#] day.
You can [G#7] go ahead now little darling,
[F#7] 'Cause I want you to have your [C#] way. [C] [C#]
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ERIC CLAPTON tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
