> I figured out the main part to Clapton's "Going Down Slow" from both

> the Clapton and Friends Concert (from Madison Square Garden) and the

> "Pilgrim" album. It goes like this:

>

> intro riff ----------------X

> ----------------X----

> ----------------X---------

> ------2---4-----X-----------

> --/4------------X------------

>

> *there's a lot of pick scraping in the song so add it into the riffs to

> create the best sound

>

> main riff

>

> --------X----X--------------------------------------

> --------X----X---------------------------------------

> --------X----X-----5/\/\/\----5/\/\/\----4/\/\/\------

> --------X----X-----5/\/\/\----4/\/\/\----3/\/\/\-------

> --------X----X------------------------------------------

> ----5---X----X-------------------------------------------

>

> repeat this for the verses until you can hear the change in the music-

> for that it goes like this:

>

> --------------------------------------

> ------------------2---------------------

> ------5---(4)-----2----------------------

> ------5---(4)-----2-----------------------

> ------------------4------------------------
