This is Amy’s Part (Guitar 1) Emily’s part is a little more complicated
and I don’t have the patience to tab all of Emily’s part. This is from 
the 1200 Curfews book. Not all of it is completely right, I’m just putting
the chords and when Amy plays it she plays specific strings. The chords 
still sound good though. If you can’t play barre chords..Dsus2 can be played
as xx0230. It’s supposed to be played x57755 but it sounds fine the other way.
Good luck and HAVE FUN!!

Intro:
E Aadd9 E Aadd9

Verse:
  E                         Aadd9
I come to you with strange fire
          E               Aadd9
I make an offering of love
    E               Aadd9
The incense of my soul is burned
       E           Aadd9
By the fire in my blood
  E                    Aadd9
I come with a softer answer 
       E                           Aadd9
To the questions that lie in your path
          E                   Aadd9
I want to harbor you from the anger
     E                 Aadd9
Find refuge from the wrath




Chorus:

        A message of love
Dsus2                      Aadd9
  Love that moves from the inside out

Verse:
E                  Aadd9
Mercenaries of the shrine
            E                    Aadd9
Now who are you to speak for god----------    
     E                Aadd9
With haughty eyes and lying tongues
E                        Aadd9
Hands that shed innocent blood?
          E                  Aadd9
Now who delivered you the power
     E            Aadd9
To interpret calvary
    E                  Aadd9
You gambled away our freedom
             E        Aadd9
To gain your own authority

Chorus:
Dsus2               Aadd9
       Find another state of mind
Dsus2                 Aadd9
      Reach out and grab hold
Dsus2              Aadd9                    E   F#m11/C#
      Strange fire burns with the motion of love--------
E      Aadd9
Love-------

Verse:
E                      Aadd9
When you learn to love yourself
            E                             Aadd9
You will dissolve all the stones that are cast
             E                  Aadd9
Now you will learn to burn the icing sky
   E                 Aadd9
To melt the waxen mask
          E                   Aadd9
I said to have the gift of true release
          E                          Aadd9
There’s a peace that will take you high
  E                     Aadd9
I come to you with my offering
           E         Aadd9
I bring you  strange fire


Chorus:
Dsus2                 Aadd9
      And this is a message

  Love that moves from the inside out
Dsus2                  Aadd9
  Love that never grows tired
