NOTE: When playing this song I would suggest you use a `plucking`
      style of playing at times. A good example is in the Intro.
      I tried to show one way of playing that. It is hard to show
      this sometimes in a chord tab but I think I gave a good
      example how to do this. There is a good use of hammer-one
      and sus chords played throughout. I can not indicate where
      they are all played but do not be afraid to use them. I am
      mainly just going to put the basic chords played throughout
      In this song. I believe that you can play this very well if
      you do as I stated previously.

      THIS TAB IS ONLY FOR THE ACOUSTIC VERSION OF THE SONG. PLEASE
      KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN PLAYING AND RATING THIS TAB.

BREAK:
E                   A
 Gun trucks in the Belfast streets
       Asus4                  A
And the war they swore would never cease
 E                           A
The day they said that we`d never see
         Asus4    A     E  Esus4 E
When they set Mandela free

Heard it said that love is all you need
