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

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...
