"Luna" by Smashing Pumpkins

Transcribed by: Decko@u.washington.edu

This is my first attempt at transcribing, so there are probably a lot of out
of place stuff.  But the rhythm is easy so you should be able to figure it
out on your own after you play it for a bit.  Any questions, comments, etc.
are more than welcome.

One of the easier songs off the Siamese Dreams album.  There is a sitar
effect of some sort for Guitar 1.

Play this rhythm part again until you get to "I'll sing along" again, where
the fill looks like this :

 Guitar 1
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|--------2----------------------
 --------------------------2---|--4---------4--4~--------------

 ---------4-------------4------|-------4-----------------------
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------


Then that twangy part becomes like this :

 ------------------------------
 ------------------------------
 --9^--9--------9--------------
 --0---0--0-----0---0----------
 --0---0-----0--0------0-------

Repeat this ending part again until the end where it continues like this :

That's it.  Good luck,  if anyone needs more Siamese Dreams stuff, let me
