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 C Dsus2
e 3 o o The main problem with other tabs is
b 3 1 3 the Dsus2 chord, which many confuse
g o o 2 with simply D. But if you listen
d o 2 o carefully you can hear the
a 2 3 o difference. Billy uses this chord
E 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

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)
