Capo: 1st fret (all chords are in relation to the first fret) The pattern is E Asus4 E Bsus/addE throughout the whole song (verses and refrain) E 022100 Asus4 002200 Bsus/addE 224400 Lyrics: She's a good girl, loves her mama loves Jesus and America too She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis loves horses and her boyfriend too It's a long day livin' in Reseda there's a free-way runnin' through the yard and I'm a bad boy, cause I don't even miss her I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart Chorus: And I'm free, I'm free fallin' All the vampires walkin' through the valley move west down Ventura Boulevard And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows All the good girls are home with broken hearts Repeat Chorus Do this little thing: E -4----4-2---0-2-0-- right before the backing vocals go "Free fallin, yeah I'm free fallin" twice after the chorus right before the next verse. I wanna glide down over Mulholland I wanna write her name in the sky I wanna free fall out into nothin' Gonna leave this world for awhile Chorus Right before they do the chorus a second time, they play the chord forms as barres: E5 A5 B5 A5 where: E5 = 022--- A5 = 577--- B5 = 799--- John Wells jowells@vt.edu That's it!
