• Song:

  • Artist:

    Smashing Pumpkins

Song: Real Love

Tuning: D A D G B e

Note: I could never figure this song out til I read that it is in 2/4 timing, which made 
of the songs parts much easier to understand and play.
Also, play this song with distortion...it will make the tab here make a ton more sonic sense.


To get the feel of the song, get the song; it is free anyway! *Machina 2*

Riff 1                   Riff 1
fall into the century on a supersonic cross
Riff 1                         Riff 2
blessed she in aching silence, eternal loss
Riff 1                        Riff 1
calling out i won't surrender a locket of her hair
Riff 1                          Riff 3
sympathize her pious pleasures, go down the stairs


Riff 4
into the dark again
Riff 5
to feel alive again, and wait for


Riff 6
real love
or is it me you're after

Riff 6
is it time
'cause it's now or never

Riff 6
real love
real love forever

Riff 7
real love

Riff 4
born of the ball and chain
Riff 5
into a world sustained with sorrow

Riff 6
real love
a real touch we speak in

Riff 6
is it ours
or is it what we're seekin'

Riff 7
real love


Riff 1 X3, Riff 2


 Riff 1                        Riff 1
in the eyes, behold and you'll find the 21st century
 Riff 1                        Riff 2
you detonate her will and her widowed speech
 Riff 1                        Riff 1
buried in the backyard shadow, the rusty coffee tin
 Riff 1                               Riff 3
that held her mother's first kiss in a nameless dream

Riff 3
fall down the stairs again
Riff 4
to feel alive against tomorrow

Riff 6
real love
or is it me you're after

Riff 6
is it time
'cause it's now or never

Riff 6
real love
real love forever

Riff 6
is it love
or just yours to treasure

Riff 6
real love
real love

Riff 7
real love


Riff 8
we never listen
Riff 9
real love will listen
Riff 8
and tell her of a fortune
Riff 9
real love is riches
Riff 8
scratch through the changes
Riff 9
real love is nameless
Riff 8
so tired and hopeless

Riff 8

Riff 8
real love is painless
Riff 9
nobody mentions
Riff 8
we ever move to collect
Riff 9
the solar questions
Riff 8
demon scorn should not relax
Riff 9
the laws of gravity


Riff 1 X3,
Riff 2 (let ring)
real love
