MAY YOU NEVER
Eric Clapton
from the album "Slowhand"
Transcribed by Steve Garner
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! **
MGay yFou nCever lay yAmour head down
GWithout a handC to hold
May you nAmever make your bGed out in the coCld F C
And mGay yFou nCever lose your tAmemper
