This is the correct tabs for the studio version of the song. For the live version, which
played with full band and a ukulele as rhythm, the tabs are different.
I prefer this version myself. There is also a simple bass line playing which you will be
to figure out yourself.
This can be played on acoustic or electric with the latter being used in studio version.

With these chords put more emphasis on the upstroke as its a kind of reggae beat. In
do this for the Am chord.
Play this once before the lyrics.
Sashamon sings a line on every second chord so on D and G chords. The Em and Am is just
fill between each line.
D
Pieces a fire
G
Peace is a fire
D
Were pieces a fire
G
Peace if I ya
D G
Theres a fire.......................... that burn inside ya
longs to love ............................and be free
all over the world..................... a fire it burn
it wont stop ...............................till our peace return
Chorus
A mystic fire............................. cant be stopped
and its spreading ......................it cant be stopped
burning down the hate............ burning down the greed
burning down our fear ..............going to succeed
Chorus
Pieces a fire................... our peace is in flames
Pieces a fire.................. our peace is in flames
We are the fiya............. who hold the love water
Let put out this fire........ so peace return
Chorus
So you see.................. we got the love
So you see ...................we got to love
Got the love and
Got to love*
Lets work it out
*This starts off following usual pattern being sung on every D and G but eventually just
up and overlaps all the chords.
