I'm not 100% sure about the tuning but I think this is right...

This song was never released on any mainstream albums but was played live a few times around the
1995 and 96 when Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness was released.

Here it goes...

The main riff builds off of these chords:		F   C    D

These are the riffs, it's pretty easy to figure out from here. HC
Ps- I know these chords are right as I was watching an in-studio video of this song at www.billy-corgan.com 
that shows efficient close ups on Billy's hands...enjoy.
