From: Raman Bhatia 

"Bullet With Butterfly Wings"
off of Melloncollie and the Infinite Sadness
by The Smashing Pumpkins

Tabbed By: Raman Bhatia (drained999@geocities.com)

Tuning: 1/2 Step Down (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb)

Info:

     After reviewing the tab and chord files for BWBW, I
realized that they sucked. They were incomplete, and the
lyrics included were horrible. So, after discussing the
greatness of the song with a few of my friends, I decided to
tab it out in its entirety. The Intro is from the tab on
OLGA already, and I used the chord file on there to help tab
out chorus. Some of the leads were also on the internet.

     This is the first song I have ever tabbed out, so if I
missed something (or if you're stupid), send your questions,
comments, or tips, to me (drained999@geocities.com). I really
want to know if the little riff in the second verse is correct.

     I would also like to say: WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TAB
OUT THE SOLO TO "ZERO" AND THE 4 MIN. SOLO TO "DROWN"?


~ = Hold Note

INTRO:

|---------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------|
|-4-4-4-4-------------------2-2-2-2-----|
|-4-4-4-4---5---2---2-2-2---2-2-2-2-----|
|-2-2-0-2---5---2---2-2-2---0-0-0-0-----|
|-----------3---0---0-0-0---------------|

after 8 times, play this ("Even though I know...")

|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------2--2--2--2--4--4--4--4--|
|--2--2--2--5--5--5--5--5--2--2--2--2--4--4--4--4--|

|-------------------------------------------|
|--14~~--12--------------------------12-----|
|------------14--16~~~--16-16-16-16-----14--|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|

Then it repeats this B chord until the chorus.

|------|
|------|
|--14--|
|--14--|
|--12--|
|------|

(I like to play just the B note on the 12th fret of the 5th
String; do as you please)


SECOND CHORUS:

|--------------------|
|--------------------|
|--------------------|
|-6--6--6---9---9~~--|

|-2--2--2---5--------|


Repeat chorus with distortion, only playing up to the first
four chords each time:

is playing this lead with some kind of wah effect:

(Repeat This One a Few Times)
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|---2h4---4--4--2h4--4-4--2h4--4-4b--2h4---2h4--2h4--4--4b---|

LYRICS:

the world is a vampire, sent to drain
secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
and what do i get, for my pain
betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

even though i know-i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

now i'm naked, nothing but an animal
but can you fake it, for just one more show
and what do you want, i want to change
and what have you got
when you feel the same

even though i know-i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

tell me i'm the only one
tell me there's no other one
jesus was an only son
tell me i'm the chosen one
jesus was an only son for you

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
