Well, there's Whir for you. I still can't figure out the
E's and other chords under the chorus (Whir yourself around...
part) If you know it please E-mail me. Enjoy it. Hope
it's not too confusing (I didn't wanna tab out repetitive
lines) and it helps out. Please send comments to

Lyrics:
I've wasted all my years
Been chasin' all my fears
For another
Brighter than you
I gave in long ago
To make it to the show
It's not easy
When you're alone
All your prayers
In my ears
Don't you care?
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
My harlot/honey little girl
C'mon lets go for a whirl
It's too early
Sun is sleeping
She says she wants to marry me
She says she wants a baby
It's not easy
When you're scared
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
All your prayers
In my ears
Don't you care?
TAB: Smashing Pumpkins-Whir
Whir-Smashing Pumpkins
Tabbed by Andy Davidoff
Last time I saw Whir tabbed it was by someone who said it was their first
attempt at tabbing. I went through it and it was all pretty close, but I
knew that something was missing, so I sat down and listned hard for a long
time, and this is the new tab I came up with. Any comments, changes, or
criticsm will be accepted by e-mailing me at .

Again, I'm new at this, any comments or suggestions would be greatly
appreciated. It's a pretty easy song, and this sounds close.
Guitar I- acoustic
Guitar II- clean electric
This part is the opening acoustic strum and is played through most of the
verses. Really let the open strings ring, that's what gives it such a great
sound.
