"Can't Stop the Sun"
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
>From the album "The Last DJ"

Tabbed by David Hill

Explanation of picking pattern written by Howard Wright 
and copied from his tab of the Beatles' "Julia"

To get the picking pattern in your head, I'll give a 
brief explanation.

The key to it is the movement of the thumb. The thumb 
picks out the notes on the E and D strings. For each 
chord played, the order of strings. For each chord 
played, the order of strings which the thumb picks is 
the same - it goes like this:

A  D  A  D


While the thumb gets on with this, use your other fingers
to fill in the notes on the top strings

If you try it a few times, slowly, you should pick up 
the natural rhythm which the picking pattern has.
