Title: "Change the World"
Artist: "Eric Clapton"
Album: "Phenomenon Soundtrack"

I got a request for this, so I decided I was up to the challenge.
I hope this sounds good. Clapton seems to like the key of E.
Have fun, and good luck!

INTRO:
There is another guitar here that I haven't tabbed, but you can figure that one out.
I think these two parts are actually two different guitars, but I'm not sure.
E A E E A E + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +e:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|---0-----0-----0-|B:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-------0-----0---|G:---0h1---2-----4-|---2---4-----2-4-|---4-----2---0h1-|-----------------|D:---2-----2-----2-|-----------------|---2-----2---2---|-----------------|A:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|E:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

This is the basic part behind the verse:

Here's the chorus. There isn't much guitar, so just strum this:
F#m G# C#m
That I can change the world
F#m G# C#m
I will be the sunlight in your universe
F#m G# C#m Cm Bm
You will think my love was really some - thing good
A E G#m Gm F#m
Baby if I could cha - nge the world
Clapton does this after the chorus:
E A E E A E + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +e:-------------0-----|-------------|----------------------------|-----------------------------|B:-------0-----------|-------------|----------------------------|-----------------------------|G:---0h1---2-----2/4-|-------------|---2/4----4\2p0-2--0--------|-----------------------------|D:---2-----2---------|-------------|----------------------2p0-2-|----------2---------------2--|A:-------------------|-------------|----------------------------|------2h4-----0h2-0h2-0h2----|E:-------------------|-------------|----------------------------|-----------------------------|
He continues into another verse, and plays the same as the last verse
Then a chorus, which has a bit added to the end:
That I can change the world
I will be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
A C#m Bm Bbm A E
Baby if I could cha - nge the world
A C#m Bm Bbm A
Baby if I could cha - nge the world
Here's the solo:

LYRICS:
If I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth
That this love I have inside is everything it seems
But for now I find it's only in my dreams
CHORUS
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
If I could be king even for a day
I'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other way
And our love will rule in this kingdom we have made
Till then I'd be a fool wishin' for the day
CHORUS
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
GUITAR SOLO
CHORUS
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
