Guitar chord Ring Of Fire

Ring of Fire was written by June Carter and Merle Kilgore and was first recorded by Johnny Cash. The inspiration is said to have come from a dream that June Carter had about Johnny Cash, in which she saw Johnny surrounded by fire. Despite being married to someone else at the time, June found herself increasingly drawn to Cash, and the song talks about her inevitable love for him, comparing it to falling into a ring of fire.
