Subject: TAB: Sinner's Prayer (Clapton)
Installment 5 of my From The Cradle tabs. This one is pretty much a piano
piece, so there's not all that much here.
I've gotten pretty stuck on Reconsider Baby, so this may be it for a while...
Share and enjoy!

Well if I've [B] done somebody wrong, [A] Lord, have mercy [E] if you please.
