Tom Petty - Dont Fade On Me guitar tab

Tom Petty & the Wildflowers

Don't Fade on Me

I dont know the picking style but I have the notes

down just about perfect. I dont know if its supposed

to be in drop-D tuning, but it sounds right. I cant

figure out the timing on it. One of Tom Petty's best.
