cherub rock -- smashing pumpkins (billy corgan)
-----------
thanks (in part) to Guitar World Magazine

I decided to re-tab my earlier cherub rock tab because, basically, it wasn't
very good. Anyways, here it is:

----12-12---12-12---12---12-12---12-12-12----- repeat 6x,
---------------------------------------------- clean guitar,
-----9--9----9--9----9----9--9----9--9--9----- straight eighths
---------------------------------------------- except for tie
-----7--7----7--7----7----7--7----7--7--7----- where the space
--0-------0-------0------------0----------0--- is


------------------------------------- 4x with heavy dist.,
------------------------------------- lots of guitar noise,
-----9-9---9-9---9---9-9---9-9-9----- then play:
-------------------------------------
-----7-7---7-7---7---7-7---7-7-7-----
---0-----0-----0---------0-------0---


-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----13-13---13-13---13---13-13---13-13-13-----

-----------------------------------x\----------
-----14-14---14-14---14---14-14---14\----------
---0-------0-------0------------0--x\----------


then play Riff 1 twice:

          vib.
------------------------------------
------------------------------------
--11\9-----13/14---13----11\9-------
------------------------------------
---9\7-----11/12---11-----9\7-------
-------0-0-------0----0-0-----0-0--- and then these two triad chords:

--------------------
--------------------
---2---2-x----------
---4---4-x--2---2---
---5---5-x--4---4---
------------5---5---

then Riff 1 once along with Riff 1a variation, just don't pull
off of the 9 on the Chord diagramA augmentedA string and slide back up to the 11th like
this:

Riff 1a:---------------------|V

----------------------------|------------------------------
----------------------------|------------------------------
--11\9-----13/14---13----11-|-11/13-----13/14---13----11---

back into Riff 1 once, and Riff 1a seven times through the end.
play this through the end, after the riff has been played four
times... use 16th note strums, one measure on each chord except
for the end chord, which you can figure out by listening to the
song.           hold     guitar noise

quiet -- by smashing pumpkins (billy corgan)
-----

This song is one of the easier ones on the album. Lots of heavy,
fat distortion, turn up the treble & bass and cut the mids.

Do several tremelo bends, down then up, 4x until the drum intro.

slide up
then down   Riff 1
---------   --------------------------------------
---------   --------------------------------------

---2/\---   --2h4-4-4--4/5-5-5--5/7-7-7--7/9-9-9--

---------   --0-2-2-2--2/3-3-3--3/5-5-5--5/7-7-7--

Play Riff 1 4x as intro, 4x under verse
Play this chorus riff 3x then the held note ending:

--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
---11-11----------------------11\9--9-9-9--9-9--9-7--7--7--9--
---11-11-9h11-11--11-11--x-x--11\9--9-9-9--9-9--9-7--7--7--9--
----9--9-0----0---0--0---x-x---9\7--7-7-7--7-7--7-5--5--5--7--
                hold    pick scrape

---9--9-0----0---0--0--0---x-x---9\7------(x)\(0)-----


For the second verse, play the Riff 1 section 12x and then do the
chorus again, all the way through until the hold.

To get that harmonic sliding effect, place your finger above the
12th fret on the high Chord diagramE MajorE string and slide down slowly, plucking
straight 16th note harmonics until you end up above the 7th fret
at the beginning of the 4th beat. Do this four times under "We
are the fossils, the relics of our time... etc".

At the hold, hold for 8 beats, then play this 32nd-note strumming
pattern, similar to the end of Cherub Rock:

 w h h q q q q e e e e e e e e
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
--4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-x\--
--4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-x\--
--2-3-4-5-6-7-8--9--10-11-12-13-14-15-x\--
------------------------------------------

Under the guitar solo, play the main chorus part 3x and this
pattern the fourth time:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
--11-11-----------------------11\9--9-9-9--9-9--9/12-12-12-12\---
--11-11--9h11-11--11-11--x-x--11\9--9-9-9--9-9--9/12-12-12-12\---
---9--9--0-----0---0--0--x-x---9\7--7-7-7--7-7--7/10-10-10-10\---

Now here's where it gets interesting... Riff 1 is altered into a
3/4 time signature, with three measures of 3/4 time connected to
a measure of 4/4 time. Play this entire sequence 4x, 2x without
vocals, 2x under "quiet, i am sleeping...". At the end of the
4th time through, slide up to an B(7th fret Chord diagramE MajorE string) power chord
instead of going back down to the Chord diagramE MajorE power chord.

 repeat this section 3 times
    ||-------------------------------||
    ||-------------------------------||
[3/4]  ||*-----------------------------*||
    ||*--2h4-4-4--4/5-5-5--5/7-7-7--*||
    ||---2h4-4-4--4/5-5-5--5/7-7-7---||
    ||---0-2-2-2--2/3-3-3--3/5-5-5---||


    |--------------------------------------|
    |--------------------------------------|
[4/4]  |--------------------------------------|
    |--2h4-4-4--4/5-5-5--5/7-7-7--2-2-2-2--|
    |--2h4-4-4--4/5-5-5--5/7-7-7--2-2-2-2--|
    |--0-2-2-2--2/3-3-3--3/5-5-5--0-0-0-0--|

The lead part out of the solo into the changing time signatures
is as follows (you need to either play it with a Boss Ocataver or
deal with it not sounding very full-.. play twice before the
vocals (play the notes in the [] to get the octave effect-:

     vib.      vib.
---12/14--12----12/14--12------
--------------------------12---
---[9/11]-[9]---[9/11]-[9]-----
--------------------------[9]--
-------------------------------
-------------------------------

Then the outro is back into 4/4 time, the normal chorus pattern
8x all the way through to the end, where it stops on the Chord diagramE MajorE chord
the eighth time through. Here's the lead part for the outro,
starting halfway through the 4th repeat:
          vib         vib   vib

Okay, everyone, we've been duped by Billy Corgan. You don't need to capo the
first fret or tune down a 1/2 step or anything. Normal tuning, I swear.

hummer -- by smashing pumpkins (billy corgan)
------

This song is a little tougher than the earlier three because it's a lot longer
and a bit more complicated. First, tune your low Chord diagramE MajorE string (6th string) down a
whole step to a D. The intro is a sitar-like line with some weird noise
gate/static effect:

Repeat 10x

--2h3p2-------------2h3p2-----2-3--
--------4-3-1-3-3-3-------x-x------
-----------------------------------
-----------------------------------
-----------------------------------

Then play this fuzzed main riff:

----------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------12--
--11-11b12b11---11-11b12b11---12--11b12b11---11-11b12b11----12--

Now play this distorted line:

|--3----3--3---1---|
|--2----0--0---0---|
|--0----2--2---2---|

Then play these distorted chords:

--2-2/10-10-10--
--2-2/10-10-10--

Play the fuzzed main riff again, with these distorted chords under it:

--0-5h7-0-0-0--2-2-/10-10-10--|--0-5h7-0-0-0--2-2-/5--|-2-2-2-2--

guitar solo, very fuzzed out
to play this solo completely correct, you're going to have to tranpose up
an octave, and then slap some of that Octaver on there, but I thought it
would just be easier if I transcribed it in the lower octave... go buy that
effect, or an Octave Fuzz....

rocket -- by smashing pumpkins (billy corgan)
------
Okay, after the nearly-seven-minute-long Hummer, the chops deserve a
little break, and that's what this tune, Rocket, provides us with. The
most interesting and exciting thing about this song is the prominent the
of the Boss Octave pedal in combination with the slide/bend guitar. To
acheive this effect, you need to turn down the direct level on the Octave
pedal, and turn up both the 1 Octave Down and 2 Octave Down knobs. This
creates a very thick pseudo-synth guitar sound that make this song what it
is. Anyways, here we go:

intro (from Guitar World March 94, the rest is mine)
repeat 3x------------------|then play this 1x      keep repeating this
              |               main riff through
--------------------5---------------------------5------- the first verse up
------3----5p3---3----------------3----------3---------- until the chorus
----0---0------0------0-3-------0---0--5p0-0------0-3---
--5---------------------------5-------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

Some little tremolo guitar floats through in the second bar after the intro:

-----
--7--
--7-- or something like that, just turn up the tremolo knob on your amp ;)
-----
--5--
-----

Bleed in your own light dream of your own life
I miss me I miss everything

right before the chorus play these two chords (or something similar):

----------------------------------
----------------------------------
--5-5--5-5-5----------------------
--2-2--5-5-5--etc-----------------
--0-0--3-3-3----------------------
----------------------------------
 everything...

Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramD MajorD  Chord diagramFF  Chord diagramC majorC
     and on and on...
Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC
Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC

the lead line over the chorus is as follows:
------------------------------------------
-----------------10--------13------10p8--- repeat this
---0--0--0-----11--11----14--14---9----9-- 4x
------------/12-------/15-------10--------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------

now here's the beginning of that interesting octave pedal work. This
part does not use a slide, but make the Chord diagramBB string bends very fast.
Repeat this entire line 2x with the main riff underneath.

with octave pedal
------------------------------------------------------------------5h7-7b8b7--
-6-8-8b10b8--6-8-8b10b8--6-8-8b10b8---6-8-8b10b8--6-8-8b10b8--6h8------------
------------------------------------4----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now under the 2nd verse, along with the main riff, play this part. Turn the
direct volume all the way down and turn Octave & Octave 2 all the way up,
and break out the slide. If you don't have an octave pedal or a slide, play
the bottom notes in the brackets -- that's the equivalent, only not synth.
Another way to play it is to do bends, which is tough, but effective.

Finally, an acoustic song! of course, that's excluding Disarm...

This song is actually pretty easy, if you disregard the violin & cello..

Main riff:

play this main acoustic riff throughout most of the song, or play the chords
marked in the lyrics....

[Tab courtesy of Jesse Scott, contact him for comments.]

Here's my TAB for Sweet Sweet - It's the simplest song on SD.. If anyone
thinks it's wrong tell me where I screwed up.

TAB by [email protected]

TUNING: "Dropped-G" (Low/High Chord diagramE MajorE Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramBB Chord diagramE MajorE) Tune your Chord diagramA augmentedA string down a
full-step to Chord diagramG+G

Notes: This is probably the simplest Pumpkins song,
    just two chord, the only wierd things are the
    alternate tuning and the wierd voicings.
    Also, the strumming pattern may not be exact
    but it's as close as I could tab it.


Voicings:
Chord diagramG+G - x00007
Chord diagramC majorC - x55050

Main Riff:
Just repeat this through the entire song
   Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramC majorC

End on the wierd the Chord diagramC majorC chord and slide down the neck.
