 Verse 1 
                                                                 She's a

 (F)free,(Fsus4) (F) (Cadd4) free (F)fallin' (Fsus4) 
  
  
  
 3rd chorus and out chorus 
  
 More or less the same as the 1st and 2nd 
  
  
 Note: The rhythm pattern for the verse and chorus differs to that supplied for  
  
 the intro. It requires a lot of strumming -Listen to the recording( one  
  
 guitar will suffice).  
  
 Enjoy!

 Song: FREE FALLIN' 
 By: Tom Petty 
  
 The lyrics can already be found on the Harmony Central Archive, but these  
 chords sound better to me than the ones found there: 
  
 Instead of:     G    C     C    G   D  which is what is found in the Crd.  
 Archive of Harmony Central for FREE 
 FALLING, use the following in TAB: 
  
 I only used them on the part of the chorus, but is generally all the same  
 throughout the song.  Note that this is a very simple way of playing it.   
 When playing it strum each chord up and down something like 3 or 4 times.  
  Or just listen to the song.

 The rest of the song is always the same
