Shadow of a Doubt (A Complex Kid) 
	 Tom Petty 
 
 
Basically this song starts out with an A riff that is also played throughout 
in the verses.  I'm not too sure about the A riff, but this comes close: 
 
A riff: 
 
E                    |                  || 
B  5 5~  5   5 5 5~  | 5 5~  7 7 5      || 
G  6 6~  6h7p6 6 6~  | 6 6~  7 7 6  6~  || 
D  7 7~  7   7 7 7~  | 7 7~         7~  || 
A  0 0   0   0   0   | 0 0              || 
E                    |                  || 
 
I hope that isn't too confusing.  Anyway here is the actual song (in full): 
 
 
Intro:  A riff (2x) 
 
F#5              E5 F#5 
There goes my baby 
                     A riff 
There goes my only one 
F#5                E5 F#5 
I think she loves me 
                         A riff 
But she don't wanna let on 
        F#5   
Yes she likes to keep my guessing 
      B5 
She's got me on defense 
          F#5 
With that little bit of mystery 
        B5 
She's a complex kid 
 
          D5                            E5 
And she's always been so hard to figure out 
         D5                             E5              A riff 
Yes, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt 
 
A riff 
 
F#5                  E5 F#5 
Sometimes at night, I 
                            A riff 
Wait around 'til she gets out 
F#5                  E5 F#5 
She don't like workin' 
                          A riff 
She says she hates her boss 
          F#5 
But she's got me asking questions 
      B5 
She's got me on defense 
          F#5 
With that little certain something 
        B5 
She's a complex kid 
 
          D5                          E5 
And she's always been so hard to get around 
         D5                              E5              A riff 
Yes, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt 
 
       D 
Just a shadow of a doubt 
    F#m 
She seldom keeps me running 
    D 
I'm trying to figure out 
         B5 
If she's leading up to something 
 
 
Solo:  A riff (you figure out the notes Mike play) 
 
 
F#5                   E5 F#5 
And when she's dreaming 
                            A riff 
Sometimes she seems depressed 
F#5              E5 F#5 
But in the morning 
                    A riff 
She don't remember it 
          F#5 
But she's got me thinking 'bout it 
           B5 
Yes, she's got me on the edge 
          F#5 
With that little bit of mystery 
        B5 
She's a complex kid 
 
          D5                              B5 
And she's always been so hard to live without 
         D5                                             A riff 
Yes, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
