Sender: mes3sl@mech.surrey.ac.uk (Shaun Lawson) Here's a slightly more tricky TP song - any suggestions or corrections are most welcome. Anyway here comes my version of ... INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN by TOM PETTY from the album of same name ================================================================= The intro and first few bars of the verse seem to be the following: Em Em? Em7 Em6 e---0---------------------------------------------------| b---0---------------------------------------------------| The chord names are probably a bit g---0---------------------------------------------------| dodgy but - hey. If you play this d---2----1---0-------- on an acoustic 12-| string (like TP's a---2----2---2---4--------------------------------------| nice Martin one ...) it sounds ok. e---0----0---0---0--------------------------------------| Em Em? Em7 Em6 Eddie waited till he finished high school Em Em? Em7 Em6 He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo

(instrum: play the intro riff and end with G then A - I think) The papers said Ed always played from the heart He got an agent and a roadie named Bart They made a record and it went in the charts The sky was the limit. His leather jacket had chains that would jingle They both met movie stars, partied and mingled. Their A&R man said "I don't hear a single." The future was wide open. Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue. Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue. final flourish: G C G G C G. ------------------------------------------------------
