cherub rock -- smashing pumpkins -----------
considering I learned this on a 30-year old acoustic guitar from the Philipines, this isn't exactly right, so bear with me....
Intro -- sounds like 12-strings, probably overdubs...
--------------------------------------------- repeat 6x, --------------------------------------------- clean guitar, --------------------------------------------- straight eighths ----14-14---14-14---14---14-14---14-14-14---- except for tie --------------------------------------------- where the space --0-12-12-0-12-12-0-12---12-12-0-12-12-12-0-- is
------------------------------------- 4x with heavy dist., ------------------------------------- lots of guitar noise, -----9-9---9-9---9---9-9---9-9-9----- then play: ------------------------------------- -----7-7---7-7---7---7-7---7-7-7----- ---0-----0-----0---------0-------0---
vib. ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ---9p7-----11h12-x-11---9p7---- -------7--------------------7-- and then two power chords:
then alternate between Riff 1a twice and the power chords once a total of three times in the first verse, then play:
------------------ ------------------- three times, ------------------ and ------------------- holding on the ------------------ then ---7--------------- C power ----- ---9-10--10----5-- play ---7---7--9-10--5-- chord --10- ---9-10--10----5-- ---5---7--9-10--5-- the --10- ---7-8---8-----3-- -------5--7-8---3-- 3rd x --8--
Then repeat the verse and chorus sections, then play the part under "let me out" 4x:
Then play this riff, similar to the opening one: ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ----9-9---9-9---9---9-9---9-9-9-----13-13---13-13---13---13- ------------------------------------------------------------ ----7-7---7-7---7---7-7---7-7-7-----11-11---11-11---11---11- --0-----0-----0---------0-------0-0-------0-------0---------
--------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- ---19-19---19-19---21---21-21---------- --------------------------------x\-x\-- into the guitar solo... ---17-17---17-17---19---19-19---x\-x\-- -0-------0-------0------------0-x\-x\--
Play these power chords under the solo:
- - - - - - - - - Then you're back into the chorus above.
back into Riff 1 once, and Riff 1a seven times through the end. play this through the end, after the riff has been played four times... use 16th note strums, one measure on each chord except for the end chord, which you can figure out by listening to the song. hold guitar noise ------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------ --13---14---16---19---------1---1\--x----------- ----------------------0-----2---2\--x----------- --11---12---14---17---0-----2---2\--x----------- --0----0----0----0----------0---0\--------------
Lyrics to Cherub Rock:
Freak out, and give in, Doesn't matter what you believe in Stay cool, and be somebody's fool this year Cause they know who is righteous, what is bold Don't stare
Who wants honey As long as there's some money Who wants that honey
Hipsters unite, Come align for the big fight to rock for you But beware all those angels with their wings glued on Cause deep down, we are frightened and we are scared if you Don't stare
Who wants honey As long as there's some money Who wants that honey
Let me out Let, let me out Let, let me out Let, let me out
Tell me all of your secrets Cannot help but believe this is true Tell me all of your secrets I know I know I know, should have listened when I was told
Who wants honey As long as there's some money Who wants that honey
Let me out Let, let me out Let, let me out Let, let me out
