Eric Clapton — Man In Love Tab

NOTES: This is a catchy little blues shuffle from
       Eric's "Money and Cigarettes" album which 
       was released in 1983. This song has three
       guitars playing — two doing the blues riff
       patterns and one playing the licks and fills.
       The chords and blues riff are tabbed here,
       but I haven't tabbed any of the licks.


Here are the different blues riffs in the song
(play them during the appropriate chords):

 "E" Riff            "A" Riff           "B" Riff

* At each of the spots with an "A*" both guitars play 
  two quick A—chord stabs.



Intro: play "E" Riff alone 4x, then 2nd guitar
       joins in with chords.


Verse 1:

E                     A*  E                    A*
You're always in my hair, you keep me feeling fine
E       
I celebrate each time I realize you're really mine


Chorus:

E            A
Cause I'm a man in love
          E
Yes I'm a man in love
          B
I tell it everywhere I go
           A
I want the whole world to know
           E
That I'm a man in love


Verse 2:

E                A*   E                     A*
I used to be so sad, like a dog without a bone
E
And then you showed me something, baby I had never known


Chorus:

E         A
Oh I'm a man in love
      E
I'm a man in love
          B
I tell it everywhere I go
           A
I want the whole world to know
           E
That I'm a man in love


(solo — use same chords as verse & chorus)


Verse 3:

E                       A*  E                  A*
Well I love to see you walk up and down the street
E
You look so pretty baby, from your head down to your feet


Chorus:

E      A
I'm a man in love
          E
Yes I'm a man in love
          B
I tell it everywhere I go
           A
I want the whole world to know
           E
That I'm a man in love


Verse 4:

E                            A*    E                       A*
Well the minutes seem like hours, and the hours seem like days
E
And the days they seem like years every time you go away


Chorus:

E      A
I'm a man in love
           E
Yes I'm a man in love
          B
I tell it everywhere I go
           A
I want the whole world to know
           E
That I'm a man in love
E
Yes I'm a man in love....
