Bury Me tab by The Smashing Pumpkins

Okay, here's my attempt -- thanks to gloakley@gibbs.oit.unc.edu for sending me
his try at the tab, which I borrowed the lyrics and the break part from.

Bury Me -- by Smashing Pumpkins (billy corgan)
-------
Okay, first thing's first: tune your low E down to a low D. There, that's what
Billy Corgan calls "grunge tuning"....

Beginning bass riff: (bass may or may not tune down, it's tabbed here without
tuning down)

-----------------------------
-----------------------------
--3h5-5-5-5\------------3-3-- etc.
------------x-1-3-x-5-5------

Guitar in:

riff 1
    harmonics
--------(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)---
--3--3--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)---
--2--2--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- repeat 8 times until "real...."
--0--0--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)---
--0--0--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)---
--------------------------------------

Lead part: play after playing riff 1 four times --



Then stop & play:

  Real..heh...heh eal love (riff 1)
-----------------------------
----7-----5----4-b5b4---2\---
----------------------------- play that & the riff 1 thing twice
-----------------------------
-----------------------------

Filler 1
         She blah blah blah   (hold until snare hit)

--3h5-5-5-5-5-x\--------------3-3---etc..--
----------------3-x-5-x-5-7-7--------------

Play four times into "I love my sister so...." and through "would you bury me?"
 slow bend -- snare shot

Chorus 1
       Once you see her...
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
---5/7-7-7-7\x--------------5-5----------------- repeat 3x
---5/7-7-7-7\x--3-x-5-x-7-x-5-5-----------------
---3/5-5-5-5\x--3-x-5-x-7-x-3-3--etc...---------
----------------3-x-5-x-7-x---------------------

  ...some things you just can't hide
------------------
------------------
----------5------- go back to chorus 1... you get the idea
---7--7-7-5---5---
---7--7-7-3---5---
---7--7-7-----5---


Then the break... the second guitar (james) plays a D chord in different
intervals while Billy goes nuts. Then, once Billy goes into his solo, they
play the Chorus 1 part 4x, and then they play Filler 1 to finish out the solo,
and then they go back into the normal Chorus structure. Simple! ;)

  D   D   D               D
---------------------------------------------------
----9b10--------7-7-x-x-7-7-x-x-7-7-x-8p7-8p7/10--- into the impossible solo
----------11----7-7-x-x-7-7-x-x-7-7-x-7---7-------- .. even in the demo
--------------------------------------------------- version I have, it's
--------------------------------------------------- impossible.
---------------------------------------------------

Solo yank yank

Once you see her... (Chorus thing 2x)


...just can't hide
------------------------------------------
--------------3-----------------------2--- guitar fades out & it's just Jimmy
--------------2-----5-----4-----3-----2--- on the skins for four bars
--------------0-----5-----4-----3-----2---
--------------0-----3-----2-----1-----0---
--------------0---------------------------

Outro riff 1:

-------------------------
------------------------- repeat 4x alone, then band comes in
----------0--------------
-------13-----13----13---
-----13-----------13-----
---13--------------------

I have no idea what those chords are, but try:

---0----0---
---0----0---
---0----0--- for the rest of the song
---13---15--
---13---15--
---13---15--

then play:

--------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------
-------11p9-x------------------------------- play this 3 1/2 times and then
-------------------------------------------- go into the lead outro..
---9-xx-------11-11-11-11b12b11--9-etc...---
--------------------------------------------

lead outro:
she will...
-----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------- repeat 12x under
---15p14----14-17p14-14-15-15-15-15-15-15p14----14--etc..-- "she will bury me
---------15----------------------------------15------------ she will bury me"
