Snail by Smashing Pumpkins guitar tab (text):# ~From: lees@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Sang T. Lee) SNAIL - Gish - Smashing Pumpkins h = hammer on p = pull off > = vibrato /,\ = slide up, down fb, hb = full bend, half bend fr, hr = full release, half release * = artificial harmonics INTRO: Guitar1, (clean) |-A--Em--G-| The G is played like: |32003x| except 3rd time where its played like |320033|. The fills are below: |----------------2h3-3/5-5/7-5-| |-2h3/5/7hb\-------------------| |------------------------------| |------------------------------| |------------------------------| |------------------------------| Then comes: Guitar2, (distorted) |---------------------------------------------| |-2-2--2---2-0-2-2---2-2-2----2-2-2---2-2--2--| |-2-2--4p2-2-0-2-2---2-2-4p2--2-2-2---2-2--2--| |-2-2--2---2-0-2-2---2-2-2----2-2-2---2-2--2--| |-0-0--0---0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0--0-0-0---0-0--0--| |---------------------------------------------| Then both guitars play G then D/F#, these can be played in two different ways either as open chords: G |320033|, D/F# |200232| or as barre chords: G |355233|, D/F# |254232|. The majority of the song revolves around A, G, and D/F#. Guitar2 continues playing this progression: |--A----G--D/F#--A----G--A----G--| During the beginning of this, Guitar1 plays a little solo: |---------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------| |-6>---6-6hbhr6h7r6---------------------------------| |-----9------------7/(14)---------12-11-12-11-------| |-------------------------*12hbhr-------------*12>--| |---------------------------------------------------| And where the progression above holds on the G chord twice there is a G note played on the 5th fret of the D string in unison. Guitar2 then repeatly plays Riff1 until the quiet part: Riff1: |-A--G--D/F#-| Under the progression there is a little riff: |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------5-5-4>---------------5-5-4>--------------------| |---------4-5-7----------------4-5-7----------4-5-4-5-4h5p5----| |-5>--5-7--------------5>--5-7------------------------------5--| Now when Riff1 stops on the D/F# chord, slide up the F# note on the 2nd fret of the low-E string to a G note on the 3rd fret of the same string while partially muting the other strings. Riff1 continues and this solo is played over it: |---------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------10>--8h10p8---8/14>---| |-10>------------------------------9-11>--------------11--------| |-----11h12-11-9-11-11h12p11p9----------------------------------| |------------------------------12-------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |--16hbhr-14*14hb>>--17fbfr-(18)--------------------------| |----------------------------^-mute with another finger---| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| Now the quiet part comes in. It's just the A, G, D/F# chords played over, but arpeggiated with certain notes left out. A G A G A G D/F# G _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ^--distortion comes back x x x x x 3 0 x 0 x 0 x 0 3 2 0 2 0 2 0 0 2 0 2 x 2 0 4 0 x 0 x 0 x x x 3 x 3 x 3 2 - - - - - - - Now Guitar2 starts playing Riff1 again. These fills are also played over it: |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--12p11p9-11p9--------------------------/11--12--14>>---| |--------------10h12--10-9h10p9>-------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------5-5-4>---------------5-5-4>--------------------| |---------4-5-7----------------4-5-7----------4-5-4-5-4h5p5----| |-5>--5-7--------------5>--5-7------------------------------5--| Riff1 ends on A and the song slows down again playing this Riff2: |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |-------0-----0----------------------------0-----0-------| |-----9-----0--------11-12-11-9-11-9-----9-----0---------| |--10-----9----------0--0--0--0-0--0--10-----9-----------| |--------------------------------------------------------| ^-------------------------------^-------Riff2 repeats. And this solo comes during Riff2: |--------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------19fb------| |--------------------------------16fbfr-14>>--------X\---| |-5>>--7>>>----5-5-/9-/11-/14>----------------------X\---| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--18h19r18h19r18r16h18r16h18r16--X\---------------------| |---------------------------------X\---------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| The X\'s are pick slides. The first pick slide should be fast and over the pickups on the indicated strings, this should give a similiar sound. The second is a tad bit slower well in front of the lead pickup. Riff2 then continues with distortion, and the song ends on an A chord. |
