(fig. 1)
Well I bought my favorite record at my local record store
(fig. 1)
I woulda bought a lot but I had a rotten job
(fig. 1)
I took it home and I put it on the turntable
(fig. 1)
It made me wanna kill everybody in the neighborhood
(fig. 2)
It made me wanna burn and rob, burn and rob
Rock and roll made me wanna burn and rob
(fig. 2)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Kill everybody and quit my stupid job!
(with fig. 3)

(fig. 1)
So I went into my mom's room and I stole all of her jewelry
(fig. 1)
I put it in a paper bag and sold it on a street corner
D C
Then I bought a lot of drugs and I got my sister drunk
D C
I stole the family car and I stuffed her in the trunk
(fig. 1)
Then I drove her off the edge of a cliff and stood there laughing
(fig 2.)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Hideous crimes done with a cattle prod
(fig 2.)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Rob and crash and tumble and burn
(fig. 3)
[bridge]
(fig. 1)
I already had my dad's checkbook, so I ran off to the bank
(fig. 1)
I took out all the money and I loaded up on crank
D C
Then I went across the country spreading fire and disease
D C
I prayed to the devil down on my bloody knees
(fig. 1)
Then I bought another record and I committed suicide
(fig. 2)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Yeah with rock and roll it drove me to the other side
(fig 2.)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Rock and roll made me not believe in God
(fig 2.)
Burn and rob, burn and rob
Don't stop don't stop don't stop don't stop
D C
Burn and rob, burn and rob
D C
Burn and rob, burn and rob
G (strum quickly)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official PALEFACE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
