Hi! I had a couple of minutes,so I figured I would share one

of my favorite Petty tunes with you. It is very easy, but fun

to play! hope you like it as much as I do! Best...Mark...

Runnin' Down A Dream

---------------------

Signature Riff: use throughout the entire song.

I do it like this: on the top (low E string)

(play power E chord)

E 0--7--0--6--0--5--0--3--0---------------

Verse1:

E

It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

D E

I had the radio on, I was drivin'

The trees went back, me and Del were singin'

D E

Little Runaway, I was so blind

Chorus: D G E

Yeah, Runnin' down a dream

E G A

Never would come to me

D G E

Workin' on a mystery

E G A

Goin' wherever it leads

D G E

Runnin' down a dream

Verse2:

E

I felt so good, like anything was possible

D E

Hit cruise control, and rub my eyes

Last three days, the rain was unstoppable

D E

(It) was always cold, no sunshine

Repeat Chorus

Break: It is just C (riff) D (riff) E (riff) Play 2X

Verse3:

E

I rolled on, the sky grew dark

D E

I put the pedal down, to make some time

There's something good, waiting down this road

D E

I'm pickin' up, whatever is mine

Repeat chorus 2X, then Break part, and add SOLO!

Enjoy! Mark....

RUNNIN' DOWN A DREAM - Petty

Trees flew by, me and Del was singin' little runaway

E

I was flyin'

CHORUS

A G E

Yeah I'm runnin' down a dream

E G A

That never would come to me

A G E E G A

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

A G E

Runnin' down a dream

I felt so good like anything was possible

I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes

The last tree days the rain was un-stoppable

It was always cold, no sunshine

CHORUS

I rolled on as the sky grew dark

I put the pedal down to make some time

There's something good waitin' down this road

I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
