Chords for Rik Emmett and Dave Dunlop Cars Tom Petty Jam

I swear to God, I'd like to sort of_
I mean, I don't [Ab] know.
You _ get old and [Gb] you start to remember things and you're probably just making up a story in your head, right?
_ But I think I was_
I had the [Ebm] paper in front of me and I'm going,
okay, I [Gb] gotta come up with something, something, somehow, something that's really [N] smart.
Something _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ that's really smart.
And you go back, like, I don't know how many musicians and writers we have_
[B] By the way, I've never been around her name, I'm so [N] sorry, but the opening, they were _ amazing.
They were so great.
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
_ Did you recognize me at the moment? _ _
[Ab] I forgot, sorry.
You all remember.
_ You say, voice of God, speak!
_ [Abm] _ [N] Chelsea Williams.
There we go. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ So I don't know how many songwriters there are in the room, _ _ but_
You [B] know, in a face of a [Gb] circumstance like that, you get out your notebook and everybody_
The writers keep carrying around [E] notebooks all day long, so I'm going through it and going,
you can learn what you can't have left for you, that's a nice way to show it.
_ _ Like, you just sort of [Eb] make an accumulation [Bb] of all of our _ [G] _ little_
And [Gb] when I taught songwriting at college, I used to tell writers,
you gotta sort of be like a vampire.
You're looking for shiny little things that you can put in your _ _ desk, you know?
And then [Ab] when you need songs, you go to those shiny little things.
[G] And I would say, sometimes, [B] there's an oak tree in that little ink corner, you know?
[D] So, I'd like to think that's what that one was. _
But, I don't know, that could be bullshit.
_ [Gb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ It [Ab] might be, because I've never heard that story before. _
_ _ _ She had a [Bb] first-world friend!
Yes, thank you!
Thank you! _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ She's never heard [E] that either.
_ _ [Abm] _ _ [Eb] _ _
Your turn to sing.
It's a sing-along.
Yes, give a sing-along, here we go!
So, _ _ [B] we started this by accident in New York at Darrell's house.
And I don't [Bb] know why, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
but they all stalked him very closely.
_ [Ebm] So I just started doing this.
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And people just started singing along.
_ They started going,
_ I don't mind you coming [Bb] here,
[Cm] You're _ wasting all [Gm] my time.
And I couldn't stop them.
[Eb]
But when you're standing [Bb] oh so [Cm] near,
_ _ I've got to lose my mind, yeah.
_ _ _ _ [Eb] What you have [Bb] to wear,
_ _ [Cm] _ Is not the way to [G] treat your hair.
[Eb] _ _ _
I've been [Bb] crying in there,
[Eb] _ _
I'm wishing all [Ab] my tears were gone. _ _
[Bb] _ I guess [Cm] you're just what I needed, I needed.
[Bb] _ I needed [Ab] someone to please. _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] I guess [Cm] you're just what [Ab] I needed, I needed.
_ [Eb] I needed [Cm] someone to please.
_ [Eb] But we're not doing that one tonight. _
_ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ [Gb] _ Only [Ab] the warped up kind of thing.
[Ebm] We've already been doing Tom [Db] Petty songs, because we're not coming back. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ [Eb] _ Oh, shut [Ebm] up, nice to meet you, but the whole hot load [Gb] of us.
_ [Db] _ _ _
[Ebm] Someone has some now, [Eb] somebody has to live like [Ab] you do.
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [Ebm] Who knows, maybe you were kicking [Gb] out a child.
[Ab] That was great.
[Ebm] Who's chorus?
I like the chorus, you know what I'm [Eb] saying.
Honey!
[B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ Everybody's got to fight to be free.
Say [Ebm] it, go, hey!
[Gb] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ We don't have _ _ _ to change.
Say it, [Ebm] go, hey!
[Db] _ _ _ We don't have to live like the rest.
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's coming up, I think we've seen enough of some of these.
I think we've got to do another one.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ And we're going to split you guys up in half to do the parts of song.
_ [Bb] I'm not going to do like Paul Stammer, he's a perfect voice.
He's killer!
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ Paul [Eb] Stammer.
Paul Stammer needs to [Eb] do with catchy vocals.
[Bb] I want everybody over here! _
[Eb] _ _ _ Well, you guys are going to have to listen.
_ [Bb] _ Let's do the last chorus.
All the _ [Eb] vampires, _ _ _ walking in [Bb] the valley.
From West _ Ham, they serve up a lot of, [Eb] you know, bad _ boys. _ _
_ _ [Bb] They're shadows, [Eb] and good girls.
You can do the chorus, nice and loud.
Then _
[Bb] _ _ I'm [Ab] free! _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ Free [Ab] falling! _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ Then [Eb] I'm free!
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Eb] Free falling!
[Ab] _ _
_ You've got more, hold on, hold on.
Nice and quiet.
[Eb] Come on, everybody over here! _ _ _
[Bb] You're going to go, _ [Ebm] _ free [Eb] _
falling now.
From the over.
Free [Bb] falling now.
Free _ [Ab] falling. _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ Cause I'm free!
[Ab] Free falling [Bb] now.
Free falling.
Let's get louder.
[Eb] Free falling! _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ [Bb] Free falling.
[Eb] Cause I'm free!
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] Free falling!
[Ab] Let's make it hold.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
Cause I'm free!
[Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] Free falling!
[Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ Free _ falling!
Cause I'm free! _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Eb] Free _ [Ab] falling! Free _ falling! _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _
