This is an accurate transcription of Eric Clapton's 'Tears In Heaven' as performed on the 'MTV Unplugged' album (1992). This transcription includes both Eric Clapton's rhythm part and Andy Fairweather Low's lead part.

Both guitar parts utilise a claw hammer finger style with thumb playing the bass notes of each chords and the first and middle fingers the chord. This piece is a good choice to develop basic fingerstyle technique as well as increasing a players fingerstyle attack. If you listen to original recording you will notice both players are using classical nylon strung guitars but the track works equally well on steel strung acoustic.

If you are looking for a track to wow friends and family this iconic track is worth the time spent learning and is a great track for vocalists and guitar duos.
