Burn One Down    Ben Harper



-Ben Harper-Burn One Down-
-Standard Tuning-
   Ben Harper plays this song one step down: (d,F,A,C,G,D)
but it works perfectly with the usual tuning except
it's a bit harder to sing...

When playing the bass line (E,A,D) you should let ring the other
chords. You can also work the song without the bass notes at first
just to get the rythm. And don't forget to sing along !

Let us burn one, from end to end.
And pass is over to me my friend.
Burn it long, but burn it slow,
to light me up before I go.

If you dont like my fire, then dont come around.
Cause I'm gonna burn one down.
Yes I'm gonna burn one down

My choice is what i chose to do;
and if I'm causin no harm,
it shouldn't bother you.
Your choice is who you chose to be;
and if your causin no harm, then your alright with me.

If you dont like my fire, then dont come around, cause I'm gona burn one down.
Yes i'm gonna burn one, down.

Herb the gift, from the Earth,
and what's from the earth is of the greatest worth.
So before u knock it, try it first.
and you'll see it's a blessing and it's not a curse.
If you dont like my fire, then dont come around,
cause i'm gonna burn one down.
Yes i'm gonna burn one.

oh yeah
