Emaj7 E A Emaj7 E AShakedown 1979,
Emaj7 E Acool kids never have the time
F#m B Emaj7 E A
on a live wire right up off the street, you and I should meet
Emaj7 E Ajunebug skipping like a stone
Ema7 E A
with the headlights pointed at the dawn
F#m B
we were sure we'd never see an end to it all
E A E
and I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
A E A
and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust I guess
F#m B
forgotten and absorbed into the earth belowEmaj7 E A
Emaj7 E A Emaj7 E A
double cross the vacant and the bored
Emaj7 E A
they're not sure just what we have in store F#m A
morpine city slippin dues down to see
E A E
that we don't even care as restless as we are
A E
we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
A Band poured cement, lamented and assured
C#m Ato the lights and towns below
B C#m Afaster than the speed of sound
B C#m A F#m B Emaj7 E A
faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
Emaj7 E AJustine never knew the rules
Emaj7 E A
hung down with the freaks and the ghouls Emaj7 E A
no apologies ever need be made F#m
I know you better than you fake it
B E A E
to see that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
A E A
and we don't know just where our bones will rest, to dust I guess
F#m B Emaj7 E A
forgotten and absorbed into earth below
Emaj7 E A
the street heats the urgency of sound E
as you can see there's no one around
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SMASHING PUMPKINS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
