"Fire" by Ohio Players

[905]

Hey guys.

I've been listening to these guys for a few days and I've transcribed what I think is going on for most of the song;

G------------------------------------------
D------10--8-7-8---7------7------------10~-
A---------------------10-----10--8-10------
E-8-8--------------------------------------

modulation (02:33)

G------------------------------------------
D------11--9-8-9---8------8------------11~-
A---------------------11-----11--9-11------
E-9-9--------------------------------------

However I am not entirely sure about, well, most of it

Any thoughts, corrections ?

Gotta love fire!

G------5----3-2-3-----------3-2-3----5---
D----5------------------------------------
A--3----------------3-1-3-----------------
E------------------------------------------

first time through then

G-------5----3-2-3------------3-2-3----5---
D----------------------------------------
A--3-3---------------3-1-3-----------------
E------------------------------------------

then it moves up a semitone

G-------6----4-3-4-----------4-3-4----6---
D----------------------------------------
A--4-4---------------4-2-4-----------------
E------------------------------------------

there is an outro part that I don't remember offhand but I may add it later
