BURST - The Subways
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This has to be one of The Subways best songs, just a shame it’s a B-side and quite hard
to find! Anyhow, nobody had tabbed it out, so I took it upon myself. At a guess it would
seem that this song would be played with all strings half a step down but for laziness’
sake I’ve tabbed it otherwise. Fell free to rate and comment:

Lyrics: (from azlyrics.com)
I'm in the backroom
A sense of cruelty that you put on me
Another reason
Another chance to work your tease on me
Now, feel the fire at your fingertips
You burst the light when you smile, when you smile
I can't control myself
I'll wait forever just to see you shine
I can't control myself
Out in the dead light
I'm not afraid and I don't want to stay inside
Fool for a reason
I make mistakes but at least I fucking try
I'm in the backroom
A sense of cruelty that you put on me
Another reason
Another chance to work your tease on me
Now, feel the fire at your fingertips
You burst the light when you smile, when you smile
I can't control myself
I'll wait forever just to see you shine
Enjoy, Marshy1991
