Intro: D Dsus4 D Asus x2 (slow strum)

Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

Chorus:
And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts

Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while

Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
