Video: How to play “Fire in Cairo” by the Cure

“Fire in Cairo” is a track from The Cure’s debut album, 1979’s “Three Imaginary Boys.” It’s a very good song and it’s not too difficult to play. All the chords are either major or minor, and you can use either barre chords (my preference) or regular chords.

Chords used: B, C, E, F, G, A, Am

There is no lead guitar part in the song, but it’s a very nice song for building up some chops as a rhythm player.

Enjoy!
