Wound Acoustic by The Smashing Pumpkins

Chords with lyrics

The acoustic version of Wound from the Machina demos shows how the later Pumpkins albums
actually do have Corgan's best song-writing to date, but they are let down by the
vision in production.

In the demo he is using some open tuning; you'd have to ask the man himself which, but
I've heard theories about something like Drop C.

These chords are an approximation in standard tuning with capo on 3rd.

Chord diagramE minor 7Em7   (0 2 0 0 0 0)
Chord diagramD MajorD    (x 0 0 2 3 x)

Chord diagramGadd9Gadd9 (listen to the track for the pattern, there's a kind of hammer thing from 2 to 4
on the D-string)

Wound opens reveal a broken man

Soon notions, blood on his hands
Chord diagramE minor 7Em7 (I just sort of flick from Chord diagramE minor 7Em7 to Chord diagramE minorEm here, listen to the track again here)
Stop, stop, pop tart
       Chord diagramC majorC
Taste of your demands

    Chord diagramAm7Am7
If you wait, I will wait
    Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD
If you taste, I will taste
    Chord diagramAm7Am7

    Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD
If you love, I will love
   Chord diagramAm7Am7
To my last prayer

Tomb opens reveal a stack of gold
Cool poison, the taste of growing old
Sit down, downtown
In your tower of steel

    Chord diagramAm7Am7
If you wait, I will wait
Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD
taste, I will taste
    Chord diagramAm7Am7
If you run, I will run
Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD

   Chord diagramAm7Am7
To my last prayer
  Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramD MajorD
My last prayer
   Chord diagramAm7Am7
To my last prayer

Chord diagramD MajorD (in the demo this is some nice inversion in the opening tuning that we can't get here)

Chord diagramAm7Am7      Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD
Wound opens reveal a broken man
Chord diagramAm7Am7      Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD
Soon notions, blood on his hands

(the Chord diagramA minorAm chords in this next chorus are different too. I just use Chord diagramE minor 7Em7 instead of a plain
Chord diagramE minorEm to get a bit of variety here.)
