If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day
Eric Clapton version
 
This is a very cool slide song. Very easy, but for some reason it was kind of hard
to figure out, mostly because of the weird amount of beats in a measure. I tabbed
this song out mainly because a member of UG requested it, so here it is.
 
 
Gtr. I (E A D G B e) - 'Eric Clapton - Electric Slide Guitar'
9 beats in every measure
Each ' or " is 1 beat
 
Riffs-
 
    '     "    '   "   '     "    '  "   '
