Zwan Of a broken Heart Off Mary Star of the Sea (2003) Written by Billy Corgan Tabbed by Jimi Eb This has to be the most gorgeous song on the debut. Use a capo on the second fret to get the right sound. The solo was tabbed for a guitar with capo, like the whole other parts. Ahm,?you?ll have to play my notation when you got no capo, I mean?Alright? The guitars are underlayed with decent reverb, and Matt uses several volume switches for his verse lead? Main strumming pattern of Billy |----2---2---2--4-4--2-2-2--2-2-2-2---| |----2---2---2--5-5--4-4-4--4-4-4-2---| |---------------4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4-----| |---------------2-2--4-4-4--4-4-4-----| |---------------2-2--2-2-2--2-2-2-----| |--2---2---2--------------------------| You see, without a capo it would simply be E | D | A | A and a capo transforms the tab into this. For the Intro play Billy?s pattern and this lead of Matt after the little double stop at the end of Billy?s pattern when it was played the first time: |-----------------------------16p14-------14----14h16---16b-16~---14---| |------------14-14h16---------------14-16----16------------------------| |--11h13---------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------| So David just strums the chords the whole song thru, and Matt plays this lead over the verse: 8x 8x |-14-|-------14-|-------16-| |----|-14h16----|-16h18----| |----|----------|----------| play this twice but the second time without |----|----------|----------| the first 14 on the e string. |----|----------|----------| |----|----------|----------| ^ ^ gradually volume swells every measure, as loud as possible and then start again? |--16h18~--16---16/18--16--14~-14~-14~---| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----16--14-14h16~-----------------------| |---------------------12r11---9--9/11b---| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------| The rhythm guitars play a slight variation when Billy sings "A feeling I hide?": Billy |--2-2----2---2---2--2-2-2--2-2-2-2---| |--4-4----2---2---2--4-4-4--4-4-4-2---| |--2-2---------------4-4-4--4-4-4-----| |--4-4---------------4-4-4--4-4-4-----| |--2-2---------------2-2-2--2-2-2-----| |-------2---2---2---------------------| David: Asus | E | A | A After the second chorus Billy starts playing a solo, while Matt continues with the Verse Lead and David holds the rhythm.

First you start with the Main strumming Pattern twice as an Intro with David and Matt building up te second time. Then it?s just the long lead part of Matt and Billy?s and David?s main Pattern/ Progression of chords, twice again with that slight variation (Asus chord first) once and the Main thing once and four times for the chorus ("Until I die?"). Play all this expect the Intro again and then go to the solo, the small verse part afterwards is just the the Main Pattern and variation. And as an end on after the last chorus, play just that A chord thing.
