Great song by Tom Petty, I was disappointed with the version that is posted, despite having 5 stars and some good comments I thought it was incomplete, messy, over complicated and a little inaccurate, so I thought I'd post my version, it's easier to follow (I think) and is complete. This is an easy song to play along to and great for a beginner. Please feel free to rate, comment, criticise etc. [Intro] F#m A E x4 [Verse 1]
F#m                       A                      E        F#m     A   E
We got somethin', we both know it, we don't talk too much about it

F#m                       A             E               F#m     A   E
Ain't no real big secret, all the same, somehow we get around it,  listen

D                                  B
It don't really matter to me baby, you believe what you want to believe, you see
[Chorus]
    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee
[Verse 2]
F#m                     A              E           F#m       A   E
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have kicked you around some

F#m                     A          E              F#m   A   E
Tell me why you want to lay there, revel in your abandon,    honey

D                                       B
It don't make no difference to me baby, everybodys had to fight to be free, you see
[Chorus] (twice)
    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee oh no

    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee
[Middle Section]
E                        A
Baby we ain't the first, I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned

D                                        E 
Right now it seems real to you, but it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true
[Solo] F#m A E x4 [Verse 3]
F#m                     A              E           F#m       A   E
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have kicked you around some

F#m                                 A               E                 F#m   A   E
Who knows maybe you were kidnapped, tied up,  taken away and held for ransom,    honey

D                                  B
It don't really matter to me baby, everybodys had to fight to be free, you see
[Chorus] (3 times)
    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee no

    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee no

    F#m           A           E        F#m                       A   E
You don't have to live like a refugee, don't have to live like a refugee
