GEEK U.S.A., from Siamese Dream, Smashing Pumpkins
==========

 - This puppy's just a tad harder than Rhinoceros...here's how I play it.

 - Tuning: (low to high)  Eb A# D# G# B# E# ..., or , you could just drop your
   ------    low E to D and play with a capo, but that's pretty un-Corgan like.
             Whichever you do, bear in mind I transcribed this having changed
             all 6 of my strings.

 INTRO - Heavy Distortion :)
 =====

     |---------------------------------------------------------------|
     |-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7--10-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7---5-----|
     |-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7--10-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7---5-----| repeat
     |-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7--10-----5-/-7----7-7-7---7-7---5-----|  twice
     |-----3-/-5----5-5-5---5-5---8-----3-/-5----5-5-5---5-5---3-----|
     |-----0---0----0-0-0---0-0---------0---0----0-0-0---0-0---------|

The strumming pattern isn't right, so play it any way you think sounds good.

   - Over the above, lay these licks...

     |---------------------------------------------------------------|

     |--/14-vib.------------14-vib.---------------------------------|
     |------------/15-vib.-------------------------------------------|
     |--------------------------------14/15b(15.5)-------------------|
     |---------------------------------------------------------------|

VERSE - hammer on the lower 3 strings with your index and 3rd finger:
=====
     "love, love..."
   |----------------------------------------------------------------
   |----------------------------------------------------------------
   |----------------------------------------------------------------
   |---0------10-----0--0-0----5h7-3---0--0-0--10--0--0-0----5h7-3--

                                          -0--7--6--0--5-----0----10----
                                          -0--7--6--0--5-----0----10----

    -  This is the basic fast-tempo metal format of the song; various bridges
     and things include bars on the 10th, 3rd, 5th and zeroth frets.  It would
     take up less space if I ommitted those.

CHORUS:
======   "shot full of..."
       |--------------------------------------------------------------------

                         James only                     (many strums.....)

   -Again, the strumming pattern isn't perfect.  Repeat the intro part and the
  next verse.  For that 2nd "shot full of diamonds", Billy slaps on a positive
  Octaver.  Also, add these licks over the 2nd intro (confused yet?)

THE LOUNGE ACT - unless your guitar plays backwards, play the following :)
==============
       "In a dream..."

   - Those notes at the question marks still piss me off...

SOLO - the only thing I attempted here was the following:

     |--------------------------------------------------|

OUTRO - wait for bass to do 4 bars, then do a heavy pick scrape and play this:

  then toss your guitar in a corner of your room and relax to Mayonnaise...
