Tears in heaven

I fingerpick it (2 beats per pattern). There are a couple of places where a
chord only gets 1 beat - I usually just squeeze the chord (pluck the 4
strings I would've picked simultaneously).

Verse:        | A       E/G#     |F#m  A | D   A       | E     |
Would you know my name   if I saw you in Heaven
| A       E/G#     |F#m  A | D   A       | E     |
Would it be the same     if I saw you in Heaven

Chorus:        | F#m       |  C#/E#    | Em       | F#    |
I must be strong     and carry on
|       Bm           |E7sus E7       | A   E/G#  |
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
| F#m  A  | D  E7sus E7 |  A   |

Bridge:        | C       G/B      | Am              D        |  G   D  | Em   D G  |
Time can bring you down   Time can bend your knees
| C       G/B      | Am              D      |  G       D    | E   |
Time can break your heart  Have you beggin  please beggin please
The |'s are my attempt at giving a mild sense of rhythym - there's
4 beats between | 's. G/B  means a G chord with a B in the bass.
I finger both the E/G#  and the C#/E#  chords in a open D chord shape
with the thumb wrapped around to the 6th string.  Like this:
C#/E#                      The E/G#  is the same thing played at the

Tears In Heaven (Eric Clapton)

Verse:         A       E/G#     F#m  A  D   A        E
Would you know my name   if I saw you in Heaven
  A       E/G#     F#m  A  D   A        E
Would it be the same     if I saw you in Heaven
  F#m         C#/E#     Em        F#
I must be strong     and carry on
        Bm           E7sus E7        A   E/G#
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
  F#m  A   D  E7sus E7   A
Would you hold my hand, if I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand, if I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way through night and day
`Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven.

Bridge:          C       G/B       Am              D          G   D   Em   D G
Time can bring you down   Time can bend your knees
  C       G/B       Am              D        G       D     E
Time can break your heart  Have you beggin  please beggin please

Instrumental of first two lines, then:
  F#m         C#/E#     Em        F#
Beyond the door, there's peace for sure
        Bm           E7sus E7        A   E/G#
and I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.
  F#m  A   D  E7sus E7   A

repeat 1st verse
        Bm           E7sus E7        A   E/G#
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
  F#m  A   D  E7sus E7   A
Fingerpick it (2 beats per pattern).

There are a couple of places where achord
only gets 1 beat -Just squeeze the chord
pluck the 4 strings  simultaneously.
Finger both the E/G#  and the C#/E#  chords in a open D chord shape
with the thumb wrapped around to the 6th string.  Like this:
C#/E#                      The E/G#  is the same thing played at the
--X-X------                   4th fret
T     1   2
-----------
        3

Chorus:          F#m         C#/E#     Em        F#
I must be strong     and carry on
The Em sounds much better if you add a C#  with your pinky
(2nd fret at the B string)
