Here's an awesome song with one of the most recognizable riffs in music.  
The verse and chorus to the song are pretty easy, but Clapton has a bitching 
solo in there that's quite tough.  I'm pretty sure this is right, or atleast 
the closest thing to correct I've seen.  E-mail me with any comments or questions.

h=hammer-on
p=pull-off
b=bend
~~~~~ = hold note
