the Smashing Pumpkins
We only come out at night
Off Mellon Collie & the infinite sadness:
Twilight to starlight (1995)
Written by Billy Corgan
Tabbed by Jimi
Eb

This is an Anthem! One of the best songs
Billy has ever written. It?s just cheap
playing but with great feeling. Go out!

It?s just an advice for you guitarplaying
singers out there and not very important,
but you wanna try out my way of playing:
I use to substitute the repetation of the
last chord in every Chorus line. For the
cool sounding chords James uses, I think,
an harmonizer, eventually some delay and,
be sure, mild chorus.

and once again I pretend to know the ways
