ERIC CLAPTON - "Broken Hearted" Tablature
Official ERIC CLAPTON Tablature & Sheet Music »
On the video, Clapton uses a particular kind of strumming to give a
percussive effect.
He flicks his wrist striking the strings with the side of his finsgernails.

Many a bond is broken.
(REPEAT FIRST PATTERN)
See the water lie on the ground
From where the heavens opened.

With your dreams de par ted?
(REPEAT FIRST PATTERN)
And who alone will comfort you?
Only the brokenhearted.
So you've gone beyond your means
Where every wound is opened.
Your best laid plans are out of reach
And all your fears unspoken.
Lord, how will you get through this night
With your dreams departed?
And who alone will comfort you?
Only the brokenhearted.

Lord I would rather be alone.
I press my fingers to the wood
To tell you of my dreaming.
To sing you songs from olden time
to keep the lovelight gleaming.
'Cause there's a place where we can go
Where we will not be parted.
And who alone will enter there?
Only the brokenhearted.
Only the broken, brokenhearted.
Only the broken, brokenhearted.
Only the broken, brokenhearted.
Only the broken, brokenhearted.
Only the broken, brokenhearted.

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.
