Here Comes My Girl chords by Tom Petty

Guitar chords with lyrics


Written by: T.P. & Mike Campbebell/Album: "Damn The Torpedoes"–MCA
(1979)

The main progression for the INTRO and VERSE of the song goes like
this––
Use a 1st finger barre at 2nd fret, move (not slide) it up to 4th fret.
When you play it with the song, you'll get the feel of it:

 A          B/A      Amaj7        B/A
E-------------------|--------------|-------------------|-------------------
B-2-----------------|-4-----4--5--7|-5-----------------|-4-----------------
G-2-----------------|-4-----4------|-6-----------------|-4-----------------
D-2-----------------|-4-----4------|-7-----------------|-4-----------------
A-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0|-0--0--0------|-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0|-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0

CHORUS:

 Hey here comes my girl    ...
F#m      B (normal B chord)
 Yeah and she looks so right ...

VERSE 2:Every now and then I get down to the....

CHORUS and then BREAK (see bottom)

VERSE 3:Yeah every time it seems there ain't nothin' .....

CHORUS then END
(the ending is just the first and last measures of the VERSE: A to B/A)

BREAK: This break repeats three times, and the fourth time just
    continues the same vamp on the E and A strings, to VERSE 3.

 F#5                            The numbers
E-------------------------------------0-|        o   on this
B------------------------0^2^0--------2-| F#5: | | | | | |  chord diagram
G-------------------------------3-----3-|   T | | | 1 | (and E9 below)
D----------------------------------4--4-|   | | | 2 | |  represent the
A-4--4--4-4-4-4-4--4--4---------------4-|   | 3 4 | | |  finger used.
E-2--2--2-2-2-2-2--2--2---------------2-|         "T" means
								Thumb.

The '^' means hammer on the first time, and pull off the second time.
When pulling off, sort of flick the B string so it rings clearly.

Also, the E in the CHORUS can be played with an E9 in the middle:

 E   E9  E                     o    o
|         |       Use the      E9: | | | 1 | |

|         |        strum.        | | | | | |
 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

                  ENJOY!
