Subject: SHADOW OF A DOUBT by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
Shadow of a Doubt (A Complex Kid)
-Tom Petty
Basically this song starts out with an A riff that is also played throughout
in the verses. I m not too sure about the A riff, but this comes close:
riff:
E -------------------|------------------||
B -5-5~--5---5-5-5~--|-5-5~--7-7-5------||
G -6-6~--6h7p6-6-6~--|-6-6~--7-7-6--6~--||
D -7-7~--7---7-7-7~--|-7-7~---------7~--||
A -0-0---0---0---0---|-0-0--------------||
E -------------------|------------------||
I hope that isn t too confusing. Anyway here is the actual song (in full):
Intro: riff (2x)
-
There goes my baby
riff
There goes my only one
-
I think she loves me
riff
But she don t wanna let on
Yes she likes to keep my guessing
She s got me on defense
With that little bit of mystery
She s a complex kid
And she s always been so hard to figure out
riff
Yes, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
riff
-
Sometimes at night, I
riff
Wait around til she gets out
-
She don t like workin
riff
She says she hates her boss
But she s got me asking questions
She s got me on defense
With that little certain something
She s a complex kid
And she s always been so hard to get around
riff
Yes, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Just a shadow of a doubt
She seldom keeps me running
I m trying to figure out
If she s leading up to something
Solo: A riff (you figure out the notes Mike play)
-
And when she s dreaming
riff
Sometimes she seems depressed
-
But in the morning
riff
She don t remember it
But she s got me thinking bout it
Yes, she s got me on the edge
With that little bit of mystery
She s a complex kid
And she s always been so hard to live without
riff
Yes, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
riff
