Here's a slightly more tricky TP song - any suggestions or corrections
are most welcome. Anyway here comes my version of ...

INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN by TOM PETTY from the album of same name
=================================================================

The intro and first few bars of the verse seem to be the following:

    Em  Em? Em7 Em6

e---0-----------------
b---0-----------------          The chord names are probably a bit
g---0-----------------                dodgy but - hey. If you play this
d---2----1---0--------                on an acoustic 12 string (like TP's
a---2----2---2---4----                nice Martin one ...) it sounds ok.
e---0----0---0---0----
