Love Is Fire
Freya Ridings
Standard tuning (or tune a tone down to match key of actual song) This tab is a tone UP from the actual song but I wanted to work out a tab out where you have the option to play it with open chords (open power Asus2 or open bar on 5th fret and open or open power (7th fret) Have a play around with different versions of the chords and see what works for you. You could tune the whole guitar down a tone to match the key of the actual song and probably make it a bit easier to sing! But that’s not so easy when you’re on the spot at a gig / open mic night. NOTE: there is an OPTIONAL chord in the bridge doesn’t matter if you don’t play it but sounds nice if you do *** optional lovely open C#m/A chord in the bridge. Pattern below *** Top E|---0----- B|---0----- |---6----- A|---0----- Bottom E|--MUTE--- [Intro] If love is fire... If love is fire... [Verse 1] E Esus4 E I feel it burnin’ in my veins Tired of running from the flames hey -ames E Esus4 E I’ve got a stirrin’ heart that breaks You’ve got a smile that makes the it race hey -ace [Bridge] If you never risk then you never know. It’s like hiding out in the bitter cold It’s true I know it’s true If you never feel what you never hold. Better risk it all to just let go It’s why I..... never go [Chorus] But if love is fire then I’ll burn for you Yeah if love is fire then I’ll burn for you [Verse 2] E Esus4 E Somehow you’ve stolen all my breath Your lightnin’ echoes in my head hey head E Esus4 E Somehow I don’t feel alone I don’t know how you know oh how you do [Bridge] If you never risk then you never know. It’s like hiding out in the bitter cold It’s true I know it’s true Oh if you never feel what you never hold. Better risk it all to just let go It’s what I....... never do [Chorus] But if love is fire then I’ll burn for you Yeah if love is fire then I’ll burn for you [Middle 8] Feel the fiiiirrrre iii-eeee-iiire I feel the firrirre iii-eeee-iiire Like I never doooooo.... Like I never do [Chorus/Outro] But if love is fire then I’ll burn for you Yeah if love is fire then I’ll burn for you Yeah if love is fire..... then I’ll burn for you STRUM AND HOLD EACH CHORD OPEN ON THE LAST LINE... ADDITIONAL / OPTIONAL simple lead guitar if you have a second guitarist (or a loop pedal): just play these 3 or 4 notes up on the top strings around the 12th fret.. Play this in the 2 bar intro and on other the bits where she sings: ’If love is fiiiireee............ then I’ll burn forr yooou..’ Top E|------12------ Top E|------12------ B|----12---12--- ..... x 4 THEN B|----12---12--- ..... x 4 G|--14---------- G|--13----------
