Biography:
Firewater is a rock group founded by Tod A. in 1995. He describes them as a "wedding band gone wrong".
After Tod left his previous group, Cop Shoot Cop, he quickly regrouped and formed Firewater to explore the styles of music Cop Shoot Cop had only hinted at, including klezmer, cabaret, ska, jazz, and gypsy forms. More than one source described the original Firewater lineup as an "indie rock supergroup", based on members such as Duane Denison of the Jesus Lizard, Yuval Gabay of Soul Coughing, Jennifer Charles of Elysian Fields, and Hahn Rowe.

It's a shame that there isn't much Firewater here. Unfortunately I'm not quite sure what
specific notes for the intro is, and therefore I will not post it, but I think you
be able to tab it out by ear.
For the chords, I'd suggest using only the top three strings of power chords a la reggae
get the full klezmer-ish effect out of it.
A Dm A Dm A
Dm C A Dm
When I was born, I shamed the dawn, and saw the angels cry.
Dm C A Dm
Raised my arms and made the stars tremble in the sky
Gm Dm
When I sang, the choirs were humble.
Gm Dm
When I danced the mountains crumble
Bb F A
Chased the waves right back into the sea,
Dm C
'cause these are dark days indeed
A Dm
These are dark days indeed
Dm C A Dm
These are dark days, dark days and these are dark days indeed
((During the chanting just repeat the chords starting from "When I sang, the choirs were humble...etc))
And that's about it. Just sound it out and repeat as necessary. Enjoy
