This is the tab for Soothe by Smashing Pumpkins. I saw some requests for
new stuff, so I posted it again. Again, any feedback or corrections would
be great. I have other tabs so e-mail me if you need them. This is in
standard tuning.

Soothe by Smashing Pumkins (Pisces Iscariot)
------
played with heavy distortion, very abnormal tuning, and it is
very very difficult !
- verse 1
Here's rhythm fig. 1

This is played 2 times for intro and 4 times while he sings.
Then he goes to this :
e--------
B--------
G--------
D--------
A--------
E--/5----
... almost break you,...
- verse 2
Het plays 2 times Rhy. fig1 normally and then he plays this slight
variation:

The lyrics as far as i understood them:
Hold me, hold me again (2x)
When will it start to swey
When will it start to almost break you
Hold me, hold me again (2x)
I miss you, I don't wish you well
And I forgive, I don't wish you
away, away, away,
it will almost (???) you
.... (???)
So, this is it, hope you like it.

SOOTHE - The Smashing Pumpkins
written and performed by Billy Corgan
from Pisces Iscariot
I saw a lot of partial tabs for Soothe. Parts of them were right
and parts were wrong so I wanted to make a complete one covering
the entire song. There is basically one main riff but Billy makes
little variations nearly everytime he plays thorugh it. I'm not
completely sure about the ending so please get back to me if
you think it is wrong. Thanks to Brian McCall for giving me a
place to start. Near the end around 2:13 you can hear the morning
buses going by Billy's apartment so don't mistake it for a guitar
