Song Title: Free Fallin'
Artist: Tom Petty
Tabbed By: bmchrestoff (January 30, 2017 to February 5, 2017)
IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTES: 1) I saw a guy use Open D Tuning at an Open Mic Night singing this Tom Petty
song and I thought to myself "This sounds pretty cool" and went home and
advantage of all the Open D Strings I transposed the song down a Full
Step and clipped a Capo to the 3rd Fret to bring it back to the Original
Intended key of F
2) This song just screams to be played with a 12 string acoustic. There are
actually two 12 strings guitars on the Original recording
3) Chord names are NOT relative to Capo (III) position
4) This tab is designed f/ a Solo Performance and the DADGAD Tuning makes
the Chord progression much easier to play and Infinately more more
interesting to the ears
