Biografía:
David Byrne nació el 14 de mayo de 1952 en Dumbarton, Escocia. Músico notable, es miembro fundador y compositor de la banda New Wave Talking Heads. Sus padres se mudaron a Canadá cuando David Byrne apenas contaba dos años; posteriormente, con ocho, vivió una nueva mudanza junto a su familia, que decidió establecerse en los suburbios de Baltimore, Maryland (Estados Unidos).

Song: Burning down the house (Live)
Artists: David Byrne & St. Vincent
Composers: David Byrne, Chris Frantz,
Jerry Harrison & Tina Weymouth
Tabbed by DJ ('DiddyD' at ultimateGuitar.com)
17th Mar 2014
This is based on a live performance with St.Vincent, where David
sings it a whole tone lower than his original Talking Heads
versions.
Video of the live performance at this link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GOhipwlWRM
CAPO: 3rd fret (Sounds in the key of F)
Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
D = xx0232 C = 332010 E7 = 022130 (F) = 133211
In this live performance David doesn't play the F to D chord
changes which are used on the original 'Talking Heads' versions.
I think it sounds better with it, but I've put it in brackets,
so it's your choice. As is whether you repeat Verse 3 again
as the last verse, or use the Verse 7 from the album version.
