  Subject: ONE STORY TOWN by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

  

  

  One Story Town

  	(words & music by Tom Petty)

  

  

  The intro is:  B5* (the bass occasionally plays an A and hammers on a B note,

  you can hear it in the song).

  

  The intro riff is:

  

  E -----------|------------------||

  B -----------|---------------7--||

  G -9--8h9p8--|-----9--8---------||

  D -----------|-7----------9-----||

  A -----------|------------------||

  E -----------|------------------||

  

  

  Please escuse the vulgar misinterpretations of the lyrics:

  

  

        F#5

  Yeah, I~ve been standing up

  E5

  I~ve been breaking free

    F#5                    E5           B5*

  I don~t want fate handed down to me

        F#5

  Yeah, I~ve been moving on

  E5

  Try another town

  F#5

  Times ain~t changin~ nothing

  E5                   B5*

  Take a look around

  

      D5        A5        G5

  I~m lost in a one story town

        D5           A5           G5

  Where everything~s close to the ground

        G5             A5

  Yeah, same shit goes down

  G5            A5

  Nothing turns around

         G5  A5      B5*

  It~s a one story town

  

  

  She was over seventeen when I held her to her word

  Had to push her luck

  Thought she couldn~t breathe

  No it didn~t hurt me when she had to leave

  She had a far away feeling

  Wasn~t part of me

  

  I~m lost in a one story town

  Where everything~s close to the ground

  Yeah, same shit goes down

  Nothing turns around

  It~s a one story town

  

  Instrumental:  A5, A5, A5....B5

  

  Yeah, I~m lost in a one story town

  Where everything~s close to the ground

  Yeah, same shit goes down

  Nothing turns around

  It~s a one story town

  

  Ending:  B5*

  

  

  Those high guitar parts for the chorus are:

  

     X                    Y

  

  E -----17--14---------|-5h7p5----------8h10p8-|

  B -15----------15-----|-----------------------|

  G -----------------16-|-----------------------|

  D --------------------|-----------------------|

  A --------------------|-----------------------|

  E --------------------|-----------------------|

  

  

  -X- is played sometimes during the first half of the chorus and -Y- is played

  after that part where Petty sings -same shit goes down-.

  

  I hope this has been help towards you.

  

  

  Oh yeah!  For the instrumental Mike's guitar just plays:

  

  A -10--12--

  E ---------

  

  And that's about it.
