Can't Find My Way Home - Eric Clapton / Blind Faith
Word and Music by Steve Winwood


Parts of it tabbed by Gerd Klaassen for the Slowhand Tab Archive
at www.12bar.de
This one is available in at least two versions:
- on the original Blind Faith Album (also released on Crossroads I) - studio version
- on the Timepieces Vol. II Album (also released on Crossroads II) - live version

Both versions are with two guitars. I tabbed the second because the "lead" picking
guitar is easier to hear and contains a nice solo. And - I have this one on CD...
The tab is not always exact I think, but nice to play.

D/C (and similar other slash chords)  means d-chord with additional bass note C. You 
can also use just the D chord...

The key is D.

Now following the picking pattern and the keyboards solo starts until 
the guitar solo begins at 02:33 min.

Use the following blues scale at the 10th fret for most parts of the solo:

I-10----13--15-I
I-10----13--15-I
I-10--12--14---I
I-10-*12*------I
I-10--12-------I
I-10----13-----I


The solo starts like:

1--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I
I-------------10--------------------------------------------------------6-8-6----------I
I-----10-12~-----12-10-12-10----12-10----12-10--------------------5---7-------7-7------I
I--12------------------------12-------12-------/7-5---------3-5/7---7------------------I

- all along the scale around the last note (D) -
