Title: Thirty-Three Group: The Smashing Pumpkins Album: Mellon Collie and The Infinite Saddness (disc 2: track 3) Tabbed by: Jon Reisch (Kaazin49@aol.com) I've seen several versions of this song posted around the internet, but wasn't satisfied with any of them, so here's my own work on it. Chords: o= open string x= not played G (320003@1) C (x32010@1)Dsus2e 3 o o The main problem with other tabs is b (x24432@1) 3 1 3 the Dsus2chord, (xx0230@1)which many confuse g (355333@1) o o 2 with simply D. But if you listen d (xx0231@1) o 2 o carefully you can hear the a (x02210@1) 2 3 o difference. Billy uses this chord E (022100@1) 3 o x in Tonight, Tonight too. Other notes: This is played with three guitars. Guitar 1: Phaser/flanger w/delay and reverb. (Only plays the changes. Phase/Flange and the delay are increased after "on my own...)" Guitar 2: Acoustic (strums chords throughout) Guitar 3/piano: Clean Electric (plays small lead riff throughout) Intro: G x3 C (x32010@1) Dsus2 (xx0230@1) GSpeak (320003@1)to me in a language I can hear C (x32010@1) Dsus2 (xx0230@1) GHumor (320003@1)me before I have to go C (x32010@1) Dsus2 (xx0230@1) GDeep (320003@1)in thought I forgive everyone C (x32010@1) Dsus2 (xx0230@1) Gas (320003@1)the cluttered streets greet me once again G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Dsus2I (xx0230@1)know I can't be late G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Dsus2supper's (xx0230@1)waiting on the table G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Dsus2Tomorrow (xx0230@1)is just an excuse away G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Dsus2So (xx0230@1)I turn my collar up and face the cold, (let Dsus2 ring) G (as soon as "own..") on my own. . .

Outro: G x4 For the piano/Clean electric here's what is played: riff 1: e|----------------------| Riffs 1&2 are played whenever a G is b|9-8-9-11-9-8----------| played pretty much. For the intro and outro they alternate, and for the riff 2: rest Riff 1 is used almost e|------11-8------------| exclusively. Just listen to the CD b|9-8-9------11---------| for the timing and changes between the two. As always comments/suggestions/corrections are welcome! If anyone has any more specific info on the effects used on guitar 1, please email me. Thanks! (Kaazin49@aol.com)
