Everlasting Gaze Tab by Smashing Pumpkins


Track: the everlasting gaze

Artist: the smashing pumpkins

Album: machina

Firstly I?d just like to say that everybody else who tried to tab this song must be tone deaf because 
all bollocks.

First of all the tuning is drop-d one tone down, so tune to (low to high) C-G-C-F-A-D this is much quicker 
tune to and is a lot kinder to your guitar and allows the chord voicings on the chorus.

As for effects use a thick fuzz on the intro and main riff, for the chorus, if you have a decent 
you?ll need it now, for those of you who own a boss GT3 use the ?fantasy? setting on bank 71, for the rest of you 
a mild overdrive and a wah pedal with the polarity down and some chorus (unless of course you have a keyboard player you can play with, in which case don?t bother.

INTRO:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
--------0^1------------------------------------------------0^1-------------------------|
--0^1-------1-1--0---------------------------------0^1-------1-1--0--------------------|
                           One bar hi-hat only                                 and again

MAIN RIFF:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------3----3--------------------------3----3----------------------|
----------------------------------5/7--5/7-----------------------5/7--5/7---------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------0^1------------------------------------0^1------------------------------------------|
--0^1------------1-1--0-------------------0^1------1-1--0-------------------------------------|

VERSE: guitar drops out, bass plays the same riff

BRIDGE: guitar comes back and plays this

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
----------------5--5---3-------0^1--1--1--------------------------------------------------------|
-------0^1----5--5---3-------0^1--1--1----------------------------------------------------------|
-0^1----------5--5---3-------0^1--1--1----------------------------------------------------------|

Then

------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------5--5--------------------------|
-------0^1------5--5----------------------------|
-0^1------------5--5----------------------------|

Instead of the next chord in the riff the chorus begins, this is when you?ll need those effects.


CHORUS: (the rhythm here isn?t accurate, this is an attempt to illustrate how many bars the chords are 
because barlines and rhythm notation are impossible to type)

Play the main riff again
Next is verse 2
Then another bridge
And another chorus
Then there?s the a cappella part
Then the band comes back and plays the bridge
On the last time through the riff it goes,

----------------5---5---3-----------------------------------------|
-------0^1----5---5---3-------------------------------------------|
