Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
(Open G tuning for Mike Campbell Guitar and Riff)
[Verse 1]
C G C G
When I was a young boy Working for the state
Bb F C G
I wasn’t makin’ much money I was stayin’ out late
C G C G
Go down at nighttime Playing in the bars
Bb F C G
Takin my breaks Out underneath the stars
[Chorus 1] (Riff over the C)
C G
I was makin some noise
C G
I was a workin boy
C G
At the top of my voice
D Bb
Saying “ Look at me Mama, I’m Making some Noise”
[Verse 2]
C G C G
I had to rock the boat I had to shake the tree
Bb F C G
To see what’d fall down on me
C G C G
I thought “Maybe I can make it” if I never give in
Bb F C G
I’ve been down before I ain’t going down again”
[Chorus 2] (Riff over the C)
C G
I was makin some noise
C G
I was a workin boy
C G
At the top of my voice
D Bb
Saying “ Look at me Mama, I’m Making some Noise”
[Verse 3]
C G C G
From Across the Canyon A guitar plays
Bb F C G
Through an amplifier with a long delay
C G C G
It was an old melody I recognized the song
Bb F C G
I had an amplifier too So I played along
[Chorus 3](Riff over the C)
C G
I’m makin some noise
C G
I still a workin boy
C G
Up at the top of my voice
D Bb
Saying “ Look at me Mama, I’m Making some Noise”
[REPEAT CHORUS 3 THEN FADE OUT]
