Subject: TAB/LYR - The Cure: BURN - (ISH!!!)


I got so sick of people asking for it that I decided to have a go. My guitar's
been out of tune and I didn't have time to tune it and I'm not very good anyway,
so having made my excuses, here's my effort:

Give it a go and see how it works!! :-)
Please don't flame me: I know it's crap already.

Here are the lyrics which are more successful (apart from the lines with *s
beside them: "What the fuck??!!!")

THE CURE - Burn

"Don't look, don't look", the shadows breathe,
Whispering me away from you,
"Don't wake an eye to watch her sleep,
And know that you will always sleep."

This trembling drone, *
Dazzled burn like gold *

Everynight I burn,
Everynight I call your name,
Everynight I burn,
Everynight I fall again.

"Don't talk of love", the shadows burn,
Murmuring me away from you,
"Don't talk of worlds that never were:
An end is all that's ever true.
There's nothing you can ever say;
There's nothing you can ever do."

Still, everynight I burn,
Everynight I scream your name,
Everynight I burn,
Evernight the dream's the same.
Everynight I burn,
Waiting for my only friend,
Enerynight I burn,
Waiting for the world to end.

"Just paint your face", the shadows smile,
Slipping me away from you,
"It doesn't matter how you hide,
We'll find you if we're wanting to.
So slide back down and close your eyes,
Sleep awhile you must be tired."

Everynight I burn,
Everynight I call your name,
Everynight I burn,
Everynight I fall again.
Everynight I burn,
And scream the animal scream,
Everynight I burn,
And dream the crow-black dream,
Everynight I burn,
And scream the animal scream,
Everynight I burn,
And dream the crow-black dream,
