Ok, first off, the guy who did this tab before wasnt wrong wiht it, but, he 
had it in standard tuning which isnt right.(you can still use that way all 
the notes and everything are right). the right way is to tune down 3 flats on 
E and half on the rest of the strings but you dont use them so do what you 
want.

G---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E(C)--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---1-1-1-1-1---0-0-0---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--10-10--5-5---0-

this is pretty much the main riff for the song and right as the solo begins 
for the guitar all you do is just hold the notes and you will figure it out 
but there is another part during the solo that goes like this and it starts 
at around 6:50 if oyu are listenign to the song.

G-----------------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------------------------------------
A-----------------------------------------------------------------------
E(C)-----1-1-1--0---0-0--7---7-7-7-7-7-7-7------------------

AND PLAY THAT UNTIL 7:50 AND THAT IS WHERE THEY SWITCH TO AN ACOUSTIC WITH 
STANDARD TNIGN BUT YOU WONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT. THIS IS A GREAT SONG BY 
THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

also.... i use a OVER DRIVE (like distortion) in the heavy parts and then 
during the solo where you pause in the begining of it i use the over drive, 
flanger and a tremolo and it gives a real sweet effect on it and i finish the 
song wiht just a flanger and over drive and it is sweet but you can jsut play 
it straight and it is still a good song.     nzimpy@aol.com
