I‘m going to tab the song for guitar 1 as though the capoed third fret was the 
guitar‘s open tuning. Guitar 2 is tabbed in standard tuning.

Lyrics: 
 
An‘ it‘s a long day livin‘ in Reseda, 
There‘s a freeway runnin‘ through the yard, 
An‘ I‘m a bad boy ‘cause I don‘t even miss her, 
I‘m a bad boy for breakin‘ her heart. 
 
Chorus: 
Guitar 1 strums the chords in a different pattern but with exactly 
the same timing and progression.

F Fsus4 Fsus4 F Csus4 
I‘m free fallin‘! 
F Fsus4 Fsus4 F Csus4 
Yeah I‘m free! 
F Fsus4 Fsus4 F Csus4 
I‘m free fallin‘! 
 
Verse 3: 
 
And all the vampires walking through the valley, 
Move west down Ventura Boulevard, 
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows, 
And the good girls are at home with broken hearts. 
 
Chorus: 
F Fsus4 Fsus4 F Csus4 
Now I‘m free! 
F Fsus4 Fsus4 F Csus4

The song finishes fading here. That‘s it! I hope it‘s not too messy and you can 
understand how all those choruses go.
