"Slowhand" May You Never ! (Eric Clapton) ! This is a cover of a John Martyn song that Eric recorded for ! his 1977 album "Slowhand". It's pleasant little tune with ! some simple acoustic strumming. This may not be the exact way ! that Eric Clapton played it on the album, but it sounds close! ! ** Capo on the 4th fret! ** > G F C Am May you never lay your head down > G C Without a hand to hold > Am G C F C May you never make your bed out in the cold > G F C Am And may you never lose your temper > G C If you get hit in a bar room fight > Am G C F C May you never lose your woman overnight > G Well you're just like a great strong sister to me > C F C And I know that your love is true > G And you hold no blade for to stab me in my back > C F C I know that there's some that do > G So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind > N.C. F Love is a lesson tonight in our time > G C F C Please, won't you please bear it in mind for me > G F C Am And may you never lay your head down > G C Without a hand to hold > Am G C F C May you never make your bed out in the cold > G F C Am And may you never lose your temper > G C If you get hit in a bar room fight > Am G C F C May you never lose your woman overnight > G Well you're just like a great strong brother to me > C F C And I know that your love is true > G And you never talk dirty behind my back > C F C I know that there's some that do > G So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind > N.C.
