I'm on fire - HLAH

A nice wee Bruce Springsteen cover is the 4th song on 
the Crying shame single. Easy enough with the song just
being based around two chords... Dmaj and Bmin.
the song is in dropped D tuning. (D,A,D,G,B,E).
The rythym for the picking is the only difficult part 
but thats easy enough with a bit of practice. Enjoy.

p.s if anyone can play harmonica, try learning theaccompanying part, 
coz i cant.

G-----------    ------------
D------7----    ------7--7--
A----55-5-5-    ----55-55---
D--0-----0--    --0---------
there are 2 ways to pick the D chord.listen to the song
to find when to play each.

 bridge????
this is only played once in the song and it goes..
 G...D....Bm     Once again listen to the cd for timing

then after going through all the parts numerous times
the song stops and a weird buzzing noise can be heard.
The original springsteen version finishes b4 this buzz
but HLAH add a new Hard part to the song which i Think
the song needs even though i like the original one heaps.
this happens 2mins and 50secs into the song...

 then when the singing starts just start strumming away
to the same chords that you played with picking and you,ve got it.
