SMASHING PUMPKINS - "landslide" Tablature

From: lseskin@ix.netcom.com (Linda Eskin)

I was given this as a lesson song by a folky-type teacher a few years back
when it was more widely known as a Stevie Nicks song. I agree, it's a very
pretty one. I've only caught just the end of the Smashing Pumpkins version
for the first time yesterday, but it sounded pretty similar (I thought it
*was* Stevie Nicks 'til I listed closer). How cool - I used to just know
old, mellow stuff, now I can play a Smashing Pumpkins number!

Anyway, here's a shot at getting this across clearly:

The picking pattern for the verses is

String: 5 3 4 2 3 4
Timing: 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

The chords for the verses are
C: X32010
G6: X20030
Am: X02210

C G6 Am G6

One measure of each, 4 measures per line of lyrics, over and over and over.

The verses are:

C G6 Am G6 etc, etc, etc.
Took my love...

Am7 C G6 Am

Chorus (you could strum this, or switch to a Cotton or Travis pick):

G Am C
Well I've been...
G Am G Am
G Am C G

1st time: Am G Am
2nd time: A G Am C G Am

Back to the original picking pattern & chords:

Took my love...

Chorus (w/2nd ending)

Happy Picking :-)
