While he did indeed compose "Cliffs of Dover", Johnson does not take full credit, saying "I don't even know if I can take credit for writing 'Cliffs of Dover' … it was just there for me one day … literally wrote in five minutes … kind of a gift from a higher place that all of us are eligible for. The outro or coda then recalls freestyle mood and timing of the ad-libbed intro. Drums are then added as the song settles into a 4/4 rhythmic shuffle verse accompanied by a very accessible set of melodies that, throughout the song intro, feature variations (octavations for example) on the main chorus. In the solo intro, Johnson does not adhere to any distinct time signature. "Cliffs of Dover" was voted number 17 in Guitar World magazine's list of 100 Greatest Guitar Solos.Ĭliffs of Dover begins the song with an ad-libbed electric guitar solo, using techniques such as string skipping and hybrid picking.
