Title: Tales of a Scorched Earth
Artist: The Smashing Pumpkins
Tuning: D A d G
Riff1
G|------------| d|------------| A|------------|

^slide
Right before Billy begins sing play
Riff3
G|--------------------| d|--------------------| A|--------------3---7-| D|0-0h0-3q4q5-0h--0h--|
Play Riff2. Then Riff1, then 2 (hold 5 on D between 1 & 2)
Riff4-1 (Chorus)
G|---------------------------------------------------------------| d|---------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------1--1-1-1-1-1-1-----------------| D|0--0-0-0-0-0-0--3--3-3-3-3-3-3------------------5--5-5-5-5-5-5-|
Riff4-2
G|------------------------------------------------| d|------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------0--0--2--2--3--3--5--5--| D|0--0--2--2--4--4--5--5--------------------------|
Then a bunch of D's.
Riff1, Riff2, Riff4, Then this
Riff5
G|------------------------0-0-| d|----------------0-0-2-2-----| A|----0-0-2-2-3-3-------------| D|5-5-------------------------|
Play Riff1. When there's that room full of distortion (read about it)
and Bill's like talking just do what ever you want, probably use a
D though.
Rif2, Riff4, Riff2, the end.
