Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers When the Time Comes Lyrics

Hello, I'm NickStratoStyle and I'm going to show you how to play the song "When the Time
Comes" by Tom Petty.
I hope you find this tab accurate,( this song is a little bit strange) but I think is
correct, so... let's rock!!
(Sorry for my english, i know it isn't very fluent, i hope you'll understand anyway.)
When the Time Comes
Key song: E
Some chords are suspended (Gadd6, F#m7, Dadd2) but you can play them normally; besides,
i play the E chord without the G#:
E( I play it like this in the verse of this song, I think it sounds better)
Gadd6: F#m7: Dadd2
INTRO:
Guitar 1:
Guitar 2:
(Palm mute )
Verse: During the verse, the guitar plays like this:
This might sound strange, it might seem dumb
Depends on the side that you take it in from
Depends on the time, depends on the day
Depends on a lot of things, who can say
In this verse, you can play the chords as power chords:
I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes
Baby do you understand, am I making this clear
Are you tuning me out 'cause I'm coming off weird
Well I don't care, that's all right
It's okay, I don't mind
I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes
During this part of the song , one guitar goes like this:
(I know it sounds strange, but if you listen to the song on the headphones, i'm sure
you'll be able to hear it.
d-6---6-4---4--| x 14 times( until the final B)
In this part of the song, I play the E chord like a power chord, in this way:
E:
This ain't the right time to say what's on my mind
I know, but I look in your eyes
And there is no real life at all
Baby hold on
And someday soon you'll come around
You know where I can be found
When your heart feels right, seek me out
We can talk more then babe, but right now
I just want to let you know that I will stand by you
Through whatever might come, wherever you run
Will you stand by me when the time comes
