Story behind the song
My version of a great song . I did it more like John Mayer more my style !
Lyrics
She’s a good girl Loves her momma . Loves Jesus and America too . She’s a good girl crazy about Elvis loves horses and her boyfriend too yeah yeah . It’s a long day living in Rosida there’s a freeway running through the yard I’m a bad boy cause I don’t even miss her . I’m a bad boy for breaking her heart . And I’m free free fallin fallin . And I’m free free fallin fallin . All the vampires are walking through the valley . They move west down Ventura boulevard. All the bad boys are standin in the shadows and all the good girls are home with broken hearts And I’m free free fallin fallin And I’m free free fallin fallin Free fallin now I’m free fallin now I’m free falling now I’m free fallin now I’m free fallin now I’m free fallin now im free fallin now I’m free fallin I wanna glide down over mullholland I wanna write her her name in the sky I wanna free fall out into nothin Oh I’m gonna leave this world for a while And I’m free free fallin fallin now I’m free free fallin fallin and I’m free free fallin fallin now I’m free free fallin fallin Free fallin fallin Free fallin fallin Free fallin fallin Yeah yeah

I still can't believe Mr. Petty is no longer with us. You more than did this song justice. Really like the vocal delivery and that slide guitar is the icing on the cake.

I've heard this ages ago but didn't realise that I'd never left a comment. This is a fab version. I like it much more than the original. The acoustic version is a revelation. It makes it seem like a totally different song. What an amazing acoustic guitar sound. Your vocals are superb.
