               I'm Crying - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Glenn Gervais (rabidGadfly)

This is Tom Petty?s live cover of the Animal?s 'I'm Crying' from Petty's "Bad Girl Boogie" EP.

I listed the chords with the lyrics but this is an uptempo bluesy rock song that
feels best with the chords played pretty much as I've tabbed below. It's basic
12 bar blues so listen to the song and play along and you should feel it.
