Blue, from "Lull" (Rhinoceros EP) - Smashing Pumpkins
====
-Although the bass is drop D tuning, the guitars are regular tuned (I think).
Here's how I play it...
|-----3-------1-------3------- -----2-------0--------------------------------
|-----3-------1-------5------- -----3-------1--------------------------------
|-----4-------2-------5------- -----4-------0--------------------------------
|-----5-------3-------5------- -----4-------2--------------------------------
|-----5-------3-------3------- -----2-------3--------------------------------
|-----3-------1--------------- ----------------------------------------------
<------Verse---------> <---"Chorus" ------>
- The above is for rhythm guitar (James). Billy plays the following (I think):
|----------------------------- ----------------------------------------------
|----------------------------- ----------------------------------------------
|----------------------------- ----------------------------------------------
|-----5b6b5---\3/10----------- ----------------------------(16)b14-----------
|----------------------------- ----5----7----9/10---12-----------------------
|-----3b4b3---\1/8------------ ----------------------------------------------
<-----Verse----------> <--------"Chorus"---------------->
- At the end of the 2nd chorus the chord is some wierd Am which looks like
this:
|---0----
|---1---- (Am/D?)
|---0----
|---2----
|---0----
|--------
- Here's the slow part...
|---3-------------0------------- ---------------------------------------
|---0-(or 3)------1------------- ------------------------13--12--(pinky)
|---4-------------2------------- ---------------------------------------
|---5-------------3------------- ---12----12-----10--10--10--10---------
|---5-------------3------------- ------14--------12--12--12--12---------
|---3-------------1-----(thumb)- ---------------------------------------
<-----James-------> <---------Billy------------>
- I could be wrong on a lot of things here, but this is how I play it and it
comes out sounding pretty good. Any comments appreciated.

Hey, Blue, all your love is strange
Come out, with all those crazy names
So true, when you laugh
For you, Blue
Right or wrong?
I belong...right or wrong.
Hey, Blue, where'd you run to now? (Hey Blue)
Miss you since they found you out
I've been waiting for such a long hour
For your smile...
For you, Blue
I lay with you this velvet moment
Stay with me for a while
Where we run is up to you
Just stay with me for a while.
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.
