John Farnham: "Burn for you"
I only heard this song a few days ago while auditioning for a band. I was
asked by the band to learn the song for practice. Hopefully I got it right.
The song is taken from the John Farnham album "Full house " from 1991.
I have added some loose strings where avaiable to get a kind of "loose"
and "floating" feel to it. The guitarist on the album uses a bit of
reverb/chorus and achieves a nice floating/12 string kind of sound.
The lyrics and guitar sequence follow after the tab.
Good luck
Lee Francis

Lyrics & guitar sequence:
[Intro]
[Verse] Verse 1 Got myself into some trouble tonight
Guess I'm just feelin' blue
It's been so long since I've seen your face
This distance between me and you
[Verse] Verse 2 That voice you show me is not the one that I know
I must be strung out of what I do
Don't hang up again
There's nothing else I know how to do
[Chorus] Chorus Burn for you
What am I gonna do
Burn for you
[Verse] Verse 3 I guess it feels like your always alone
And I feel that way too
It's so hard to explain to you
Please understand what I do
[Chorus] Chorus Burn for you
What am I gonna do
Burn for you
Burn for you
[Bridge intro]
[Bridge] Bridge Took my trouble to a bar tonight
For another point of view
But there's nothing new
I'm missing you
[Chorus] Chorus Burn for you
What am I gonna do
Burn for you
Burn for you
[Bridge intro]
[Chorus] Chorus Burn for you
What am I gonna do
Burn for you
[Chorus] Chorus Burn for you
What am I gonna do
Burn for you
Burn for you
[End] End Burn... for... you...
