Im On Fire

this is the sara bareilles cover version of i’m on fire originally by bruce springstein .
sara performs this live on piano on a video you can find on youtube .

this is my first tab so it may be a bit sloppy , but it would get you by .

i think her version is gorgeous , hope you enjoy!

( in the video that last note isn’t “c” it’s a note deeper than the guitar will allow if
you play in standard
tuning , but “c” resolves the melody so it sounds fine )
