This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

The Pointer Sisters "Fire"

The measures are real easy, the timing is simple.

Play with it, and throw in some loops.

At the bottom I threw in some simple ideas.

( This is repeated through the song )

There's an interlude after the second verse and chorus

that is just a mixture of the 4th 6th & 8th fret

played on the D string. I'm not including that, cus

you'll want to really add something so your not board.

If your just learning, then start with the 6th, play it

a few times, then go to the 4th, back to the 6th, back

4th, 6th, 8th, and repeat. Got it? :-)
