Here's my tabbed out version of Burnin' Streets for one guitar.
Admittedly, there are some places where the two guitars together
forced me to come up with a different way to play it on just one.
Please rate my tab to let me know if you found this helpful to you.

Yeah, ah come on (London is burnin')

Too many guns in this damn town
At the supermarket, you gotta duck down
E A
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round (London is burnin')

There's too many guns in this damn town (London is burnin')
E A
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round (London is burnin')
E A
Too many guns in this damn town (London is burnin')
E A
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round (London is burnin')
