REFRAIN: C - D - G - G/F# Em - C - G And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?" And I say, "Yes, You look wonderful tonight." 2ND VERSE: G - F# - Em - D We go to a party and everyone turns to see This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair. You can just strum the G chord once (literally one pick motion from the sixth string across all of the strings), then again G/Gb once (all the way across all strings) and then a full down – down – up strumming pattern on the E minor chord and the remaining chords C and D.Artist: Eric Clapton Song Title: Wonderful Tonight Chords Used: G - 320033 F# - 244222 Em - 022000 D - 000232 C - 032010 INTRO: G - F# - Em - D(2x) VERSE: G - F# - Em - D It's late in the evening she's wondering what clothes to wear. On the chorus part, we would strum exactly the same way except for our little quirky chord batch – G – G/Gb – E minor. There is a small gap in between the strums so please make sure that you watch the video for the full explanation. Start from the G chord, strum it down – down – up, then go to the D and again strum it down – down – up and so on. Please make sure that you are familiar with the chord structure and comfortable with the changes before you start applying the rhythm into this chord progression. One way to strum this song would be to apply the down – down – up strumming pattern.
This is actually quite a popular transition used in many songs, for example in Pink Floyd’s ‘Comfortably Numb’ song.
Again you may try to isolate this part and practice for a few days going from G to G/Gb to E minor. The chorus part features a quite unusual chord G/Gb (G slash G flat) that sounds pretty strange and tense on its own, but perfect when placed in between G and E minor – please watch the video lesson for a full explanation.
