		* Tuning - Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb *

	This is a Beautiful Song of off Mellon Collie, it took me
	an extremely long time to transcribe, and I think its
	pretty accurate through most of the song.  This is the most
	organized way I could come up with to show each part.  The
	song is generally easy, and will come along with practice :)

* Sometimes this is a five, when applicable in the song.
  When it is a five, the correct notes can be found by moving
  the fingers on the E and A strings along the fretboard while still
  playing the same pattern...just listen to the song to find the right
  notes. There are other little variations but you should be able to
  figure them out.

I'm almost positive that this version is right.  It's at least a lot
better than the other versions currently posted.  It sure isn't random
picking.

This song was tabbed with help from Bill Ward. (he worked the computer)

"Stumbleine" by the Smashing Pumpkins
Taken from the album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Lyrics written by Billy Corgan and music by the Smashing Pumpkins
Transcribed by Justin Kunz, kunjust@lyco.lycoming.edu

Well this is all from ear, and the majority of this sounds like it is
concentrated on picking the D and G strings while adding either the bass
E or high E, and a few times both. Unlike Landslide, which is picked
pretty randomly, I'm pretty sure there is a followed pattern. Suggestions,
corrections, and comments are welcome.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Tuned down 1/2 step like all of Mellon Collie.
