Subject: TAB: Fire & Ice by Poison

Author/Artist: Poison

Title: Until You Suffer Some (Fire and Ice)

Album: Native Tongue

I'm not much of a poison fan, but in my opinion this is a great song...perhaps

Poison's best song ever. This transcription should be fairly accurate, minus

some of the verse lead fills which you can add at your own discretion.

Have fun with it!!
