Down South

Artist: Tom Petty
Song: Down South 
Album: Highway Companion

Each verse uses the same chords. 

Each chorus uses the same chords, except the last one, which I "tabbed."

The rhythm of the transitions between A and Asus4 at the end of each verse is tricky - please
listen to the record or watch a performance to get a sense of the timing.
