(refer to the chord formations at the end of the file)



Chris: Okay, everyone, we've been duped by Billy Corgan.  You don't need to

       capo the first fret or tune down a 1/2 step or anything.  Normal tuning,

       I swear.



  Jay: Okay, *someone*, whose names I won't mention, Chris, went a little happy

       with major chords. I for the most part left this file intact, except

       changing certain major chords to minor chords. I play this as an

       acoustic, so I ain't sure if the tabs themselves are right or not. But

       hey, you'll find that out for me I guess, won't ya? By the way, the Cm

       chord in this song is basically a Cm(VIII) which is 8/10/10/8/8/8 but I

       didn't feel like trying to fit the (VIII) everywhere. So just keep that

       in mind. You can also use a regular Cm (x35543) during the verses if you

       so choose. It makes the playing a lot simpler.

       Okay. This is the over-talkative Jay V signin' out. Remember to get your

       stuff from guitartabs.cc all the time!
