 G
Let us burn one from end to end 
 Em7 
And pass it over 
   Cadd9
To me my friend 
 G
Burn it long, well burn it slow 
 Em7           Cadd9
To light me up before I go 
 
 G
If you dont like my fire 
 Em7 
Then dont come around 
       Em       D        C
Cause Im gonna burn one down 
     Em       D        G (Riff)
Yes Im gonna burn one down 
 
My choice is what I choose to do 
And if Im causing no harm 
It shouldnt bother you 
Your choice is who you choose to be 
And if your causin no harm 
Then youre alright with me 
 
If you dont like my fire 
Then dont come around 
Cause Im gonna burn one down 
Yes Im gonna burn one down 
 
Herb the gift from the earth 
And whats from the earth 
Is of the greatest worth 
So before you knock it try it first 
Youll see its a blessing 
And not a curse 
 
If you dont like my fire 
Then dont come around 
Cause Im gonna burn one down 
Yes Im gonna burn one down

This is the first thing I've ever tabbed.  Someone sent me a tab for this but it
 wasn't quite right.  I could really use some help here, especially on the highe
r strings.  I'm just not sure what Ben's doing there.  Any suggestions on how to
 play the rhythm are greatly appreciated.  Also, Ben has this tuned down one who
le step.

Verse

Riff 1 
 

 This tab is tuned as in the album version. 
you don't have to tune your strings one step down as in the old tab. 
the only matter is that you can't play the D in bar 2 of the verse. 
so just play a ghost note instead !
