Golden Ring Eric Clapton
<i></i>I like this ("Bob Dylan influenced") Clapton song!
[G]He gave to you a [C]golden rin[G]g;
[D]It made you [Em]happy, it[C] made you [G]sing.
And I played for you on my guitar;
It didn't last long, we didn't go far.
[G]And though the [C]times have [G]changed,
[D]We're re[Em]arranged.
[C]Will the [G]ties that [D]bind remain the [G]same?
You came around after a while;
Everyone said that I made you smile.
It all went well, and suddenly then
You heard that he would marry again.
(Chorus)
Well I know that I have been here before;
I've trod on your wings, I've opened the door.
If I gave to you a golden ring
Would I make you happy, would I make you sing?
(Chorus 2x)
Play a little slide solo after the second refr. (in standard tunning)
