Bury Me The Smashing Pumpkins
his try at the tab, which I borrowed the lyrics and the break part from.
Bury Me -- by Smashing Pumpkins (billy corgan)
-------
Okay, first thing's first: tune your low E down to a low D. There, that's what
Billy Corgan calls "grunge tuning"....
Beginning bass riff: (bass may or may not tune down, it's tabbed here without
tuning down)
----------------------------- ----------------------------- --3h5-5-5-5\------------3-3-- etc. ------------x-1-3-x-5-5------
Guitar in:
[----]
[----]
[-2--]-0-- hold until next part

riff 1
harmonics
--------(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- --3--3--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- --2--2--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- repeat 8 times until "real...." --0--0--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- --0--0--(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)--- --------------------------------------
Lead part: play after playing riff 1 four times --
Then stop & play:
Real..heh...heh eal love (riff 1)
----------------------------- ----7-----5----4-b5b4---2\--- ----------------------------- play that & the riff 1 thing twice ----------------------------- ----------------------------- -----------------------------
Filler 1
She blah blah blah (hold until snare hit)

------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- --3h5-5-5-5-5-x\--------------3-3---etc..-- ----------------3-x-5-x-5-7-7--------------
Play four times into "I love my sister so...." and through "would you bury me?"

Chorus 1
Once you see her...
------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------ ---5/7-7-7-7\x--------------5-5----------------- repeat 3x ---5/7-7-7-7\x--3-x-5-x-7-x-5-5----------------- ---3/5-5-5-5\x--3-x-5-x-7-x-3-3--etc...--------- ----------------3-x-5-x-7-x---------------------
...some things you just can't hide
------------------ ------------------ ----------5------- go back to chorus 1... you get the idea ---7--7-7-5---5--- ---7--7-7-3---5--- ---7--7-7-----5---
Then the break... the second guitar (james) plays a D chord in different
intervals while Billy goes nuts. Then, once Billy goes into his solo, they
play the Chorus 1 part 4x, and then they play Filler 1 to finish out the solo,
and then they go back into the normal Chorus structure. Simple! ;)
[D] [D] [D] [D]

Solo yank yank
Once you see her... (Chorus thing 2x)

------------------------------------------ --------------3-----------------------2--- guitar fades out & it's just Jimmy --------------2-----5-----4-----3-----2--- on the skins for four bars --------------0-----5-----4-----3-----2--- --------------0-----3-----2-----1-----0--- --------------0---------------------------
Outro riff 1:
------------------------- ------------------------- repeat 4x alone, then band comes in ----------0-------------- -------13-----13----13--- -----13-----------13----- ---13--------------------
I have no idea what those chords are, but try:
---0----0--- ---0----0--- ---0----0--- for the rest of the song ---13---15-- ---13---15-- ---13---15--
then play:
-------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- -------11p9-x------------------------------- play this 3 1/2 times and then -------------------------------------------- go into the lead outro.. ---9-xx-------11-11-11-11b12b11--9-etc...--- --------------------------------------------
lead outro:
she will...
----------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- repeat 12x under ---15p14----14-17p14-14-15-15-15-15-15-15p14----14--etc..-- "she will bury me ---------15----------------------------------15------------ she will bury me" ----------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------

Lyrics:
Real love
Real love
Share your kisses, take your heart
Everything if it hurts
I love my sister so <on shine>
She don't smother me <on shine on shine>
I played the spades I know <on shine>
I'm a Jack of all trades... would you bury me?
Once you see her
One inside <ide..ide>
Some things you just can't hide
If you see her
Tell me why <hy..hy>
Why won't she come outside?
She will... bury me.
She will... bury me.
