Eric Clapton
Layla
What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long.
You know it's just your foolish pride.
Layla, you've got me on my knees.
Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.
Chorus
Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.
Chorus
Chorus
NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND OUT
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money, just did not care
Took all my friends out for a good time
Bought bootleg whisky, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins, year
Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
And as for friends, you don't have any
When you finally get back up on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend
Said it's mighty strange
Nobody knows you
Nobody knows you
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Tears in Heaven
Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven
I must be strong and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.
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
Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break the heart, have you begging please, begging please
Beyond the door, there's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven
KNOCKING ON HEAVEN'S DOOR (written by Bob Dylan)
Mama, take this badge off of me,
I can't use it anymore.
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see,
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Mama, take these guns away from me,
I can't use them anymore.
There's a long black cloud followin' me.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Solo
Mama, take this badge off of me,
I can't use it anymore.
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see,
I feel like I'm knockin on heaven's door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
I Can't Stand It
You've been told, so maybe it's time that you learned.
You've been sold, maybe it's time that you earned.
I can't stand it.
You're fooling around, I can't stand it.
You're running around, I can't stand it.
You're fooling around with my heart.
I'll explain; I feel like I'm being used.
Make it plain, so you don't get confused.
Chorus
Chorus
It's time, time for me to let you know.
Ain't no crime, no crime to let your feelings show.
Chorus
LET IT GROW
I'm standin' at the crossroads
tryin' to read the signs
to tell me which way I should
go to find the answer
and all the time I know
let your love and let it grow.
Let it grow, let it grow,
let it blossom, let it flow.
In the sun and in the snow
love is lovely, let it grow.
Lookin' for a reason
to check out on my mind.
It's so hard to find a
friend that I can count on.
There's nothin' left to show,
plant your love and let it grow.
Let it grow...
Time is gettin' shorter
and there's much for you to do,
only ask'n you will get what you are needin',
the rest is up to you.
Plant your love and let it grow.
Let it grow...

Strange Brew
Strange Brew
Strange brew, killing what's inside of you
She's a witch of trouble in electric blue
In her own mad mind, she's in love with you, with you
Now what you gonna do?
Strange brew, killing what's inside of you
She's some kind of demon dusting in the flue
If you don't watch out she'll stick to you, to you
What kind of fool are you?
Strange brew, killing what's inside of you
On a boat in the middle of a raging sea
She would make a scene for it all to be ignored
And wouldn't you be bored?
Strange brew, killing what's inside of you
Strange brew (4X)
Strange brew, killing what's inside of you
