	Well, I'm outta here tomorrow, so if anyone else has tabs they
could send me, please do so.  I said I'd do Luna by now, but with
finishing up with work, I haven't had the time.  So, here's just the
progressions i've worked out:

opening progression:(play also during the verses)
|Dsus2   E     |(repeat 3x)|Aadd6         |
Dsus2   E    Aadd6
0       0     0h2
3       0     2
2       1     2
0       2     2
X       2     0
X       0     X

2nd progression:("I'll sing for you..."etc)
|A G      D/F#|D/F#      E |
|A G      D/F#|D/F#        |

("But it's a chance..."  )
|Bmin   G     |Aadd6       |
Bmin    G     |Aadd6       |
A     G     D/F#    Bmin
0     3     2       2
2     3     3       3
2     0     2       4
2     0     0       4
0     2     0       2
X     3     2       X

for the "i'm in love with you..." part, just play the opening progression,
and end on Asus2 (00220X high to low) and A(12,14,14,14,12,X)

Well, that's basically it, except for the sitar-like lead, but you should
be able to figure out most of that on you own.

C-ya next year (hopefully)

Lyrics to Luna:

What moon songs do you sing your babies?
What sunshine do you bring?

Who belongs, who decides who's crazy,
Who rights wrongs where others cling?

I'll sing for you if you want me to
I'll give to you
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I go along just because I'm lazy
I go along to be with you

And those moonsongs that you sing your babies
Will be the songs to see you through

I'll hear your song, if you want me to
I'll sing along
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you, with you
(etc)

Thanks to Efren for figuring out the chords.  Later,

"Luna" by Smashing Pumpkins

Transcribed by: Decko@u.washington.edu

This is my first attempt at transcribing, so there are probably a lot of out
of place stuff.  But the rhythm is easy so you should be able to figure it 
out on your own after you play it for a bit.  Any questions, comments, etc.
are more than welcome.

One of the easier songs off the Siamese Dreams album.  There is a sitar 
effect of some sort for Guitar 1.

Play this rhythm part again until you get to "I'll sing along" again, where
the fill looks like this :

 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|--------2----------------------
 --------------------------2---|--4---------4--4~--------------
 --4^---4~---5--4---4--4-------|-------------------------------

 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
 ------------------------------|-------------------------------
                              

Then that twangy part becomes like this :

That's it.  Good luck,  if anyone needs more Siamese Dreams stuff, let me
know and i'll see if I can't get it.  They are the greatest band around 
today :).
