Tom Petty
Free-Falling

This is in response to Mike May's interpretation.
I've listened to the CD and it actually goes like this:

CAPO ON THIRD FRET!
Play these chord formations: (see bottom of document)

INTRO
D/Dsus Dsus/D/Asus (x2)
(simply put, this is the chord pattern for the ENTIRE song)

D Dsus Dsus D Asus
she's a good girl, loves her mama
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
loves Je-sus and America too
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
she's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
loves hors-es and her boy - friend too

(intro again 1x)

D Dsus Dsus D Asus
it's a long day livin' in Reseda
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
there's a free-way runnin' through the yard
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
and i'm a bad boy, cause i don't even miss her
D Dsus Dsus D Asus
i'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart


CHORUS
D-Dsus Dsus-D-Asus
now i'm free
D-Dsus Dsus-D-Asus
free fall-in'
D-Dsus Dsus-D-Asus
ya i'm free
D-Dsus Dsus-D-Asus
free fall-in'


all the vampires walkin' through the valley
move west down Ventura Boulevard
all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
and the good girls are home with broken hearts

now i'm free
free fall-in'
ya i'm free
free fall-in'

intro again, with light solo/riff
(free fallin, now I'm, free fallin)

i wanna glide down over Mulholland
i wanna write her name in the sky
gonna free fall out into nothin'
gonna leave this world for a while

and i'm free
(free fallin, now I'm, free fallin)
free fall-in'
(free fallin, now I'm, free fallin)
ya i'm free
(free fallin, now I'm, free fallin)
free fall-in'
(free fallin, now I'm, free fallin)

BAR CHORD BREAK
(second guitar with capo on 1st fret
play E-A A-E-B bar chords)

End
