Walls - Tom Petty - Capo 3
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
D                           Bm
Some days are diamonds       Some days are rocks
G                           A
Some doors are open          Some roads are blocked
D                           Bm
Sundowns are golden          Then fade away
G                           A
And if I never do nothing    I'll get you back some day
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 N.C.           G        D                  G          D
Cause you got a heart so big       It could crush this town
             Em         Bm               A          D
And I can't hold out forever        Even walls fall down
 
(Keep putting on and taking off 4th finger on 3rd fret, while playing the D, on the high
e string to make it sound better after "Even walls fall down.)
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
D                               Bm
And all around your island       There's a barricade
G                               A
It keeps out the danger          It holds in the pain
D                               Bm
Sometimes you're happy           Sometimes you cry
G                               A
Half of me is ocean              Half of me is sky
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 N.C.         G        D                  G          D
But you got a heart so big       It could crush this town
             Em         Bm               A          D
And I can't hold out forever        Even walls fall down
 
 
[Bridge]
 
D Bm G A
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
D                            Bm
And some things are over    Some things go on
G                            A
And part of me you carry    Part of me is gone
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 N.C.           G        D                  G          D
Cause you got a heart so big       It could crush this town
             Em        Bm                A          D
And I can't hold out forever        Even walls fall down
 
 N.C.           G        D                  G          D
Cause you got a heart so big       It could crush this town
             Em        Bm                A          D
And I can't hold out forever        Even walls fall down

watching a video on YouTube looks like he's starting with a C chord with a capo on 5th fret. Same key, different voicing.
