Wildflowers (Tom Petty)

transcribed by Baxter Rogers (bpr6a@aurora.urich.edu)

My little arrangement, only sort of like the recording but it sounds good,
for two guitars: one capoed at the 3rd fret, one with no capo. Or ditch
the second one if you don't have two.

Here's the basic rhythm thing for both of them:

(capo 3--simple strum. notice that droning C... it's really there)
Fsus4 F C F
g:|2h3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|0h2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|0---0-0-0-0-0-0-|0h2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
d:|3---3-3-3-3-3-3-|3---3-3-3-3-3-3-|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|3---3-3-3-3-3-3-|
Bb:|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|
F:|0---0-0-0-0-0-0-|0---0-0-0-0-0-0-|2---2-2-2-2-2-2-|0---0-0-0-0-0-0-|
C:|----------------|----------------|0---0-0-0-0-0-0-|----------------|
G:|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

(no capo)
e:|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
B:|1h3-3-------1---|1---------------|--------1-------|1---------------|
G:|3---------------|0h2-2-------0---|0-----------0---|0h2-------------|
D:|----------------|----------------|2---------------|----------------|
A:|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
E:|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

In the second line of each verse, just keep that C chord for the fourth
measure.

CHORDS

(with capo at 3rd fret)
Fsus4: xx0233
F: xx0232
F9: xx0230 or xx2232
C: x02220 or 577655
Bb: 355433
Dm: x24432 or xx0432
G: 022100 or xxx454

Maybe there should be some Bbs (xx0033) down there instead of all those
Fsus4s.

Each chord here is a measure, except a connecting dash indicates that
each is only half a measure.
