On Fire
Let It Come Down (2001)
A boss tune, and ridiculously easy to play as well.
The piano riff at the start is way too hard to figure out note for note-just have a bluesy riff.
The verses are underpinned by a quick riff. This is that riff:
E-3-----3-|
A--1-3----|
D-----0---|
The notes are G-Bb-C-D, and are also repeated after the chorus on the live version..
*also, its the basis for The Power And The Glory off Amazing Grace*
So repeat this riff throughout the entire first two verses and choruses of the song.
Lets see how high we can fly,
before the sun melts the wax in our wings.
Lets see how fast we can go
before our eyes can't follow the road
I'm on fire
Theres no water for the flames
And I'm alive
with no one but myself to blame
and I'm proud
That I've never fallen down
and I have learned
all the truth has tried to deny
Doo-Doo-Do-Do-Doo
Doo-Doo-Do-Dooo
Lets see how fast we can live
until our times start slowing us down
just how much further we go
before we get our place in the ground
I'm on fire
Theres no water for the flames
And I'm alive
with no one but myself to blame
and I'm free
to do what I want to do
and I burn
all the faith has had me denied
Doo-Doo-Do-Do-Doo
Doo-Doo-Do-Dooo x2
For the extended gospel mission at the end, actual chords are played. These would be
favourite chords, G and C. Play them thus...
G
Come on my lord
Come on my child
C
let heaven flow
G
into your soul
G
let it come on down
ease away the pain
C
you won't feel
G
that way again
Come on my lord
Come on my child
let heaven flow
into your soul
let it come on down
let it come on down
let it come on down
let it come on down
into your soul
into your soul
into your soul
into your soul (repeated until fade out)
end on a G for the live version, and have a good time playing it!
