Intro;
[FIG.1] [FIG.2] [FIG.1] [FIG.2]

[C] speak to me in a [Dm] language i can [FIG.1] hear
     [C] humour me [Dm] before i have to [FIG.1] go
[C] deep in thought i [Dm] forgive every - [FIG.1] one
as the [C] cluttered streets [Dm] greet me once [FIG.1] again
i know i can't be [C] late,[Dm] [FIG.2] supper's waiting on the [C] table [Dm]
[FIG.1] tomorrow's just an excuse away [C] [Dm]
so i [FIG.2] pull my collar up and face the [C] cold,
[Dm] on my own [FIG.1]

the [C] earth laughs [Dm] beneath my heavy [FIG.1] feet
at the [C] blasphemy in [Dm] my old jangly [FIG.1] walk
[C] steeple guide me [Dm] to my heart and [FIG.1] home
the [C] sun is out and [Dm] up and down [FIG.3] again
i know i'll make it, [FIG.2] love can last forever
[FIG.3] graceful swans of never [Dm] topple to the [C] earth
and [FIG.1] you can make it [C] last, [Dm] forever you
[FIG.2] you can make it [C] last, [Dm] forever you
and [FIG.1] you can make it [C] last [Dm]
and [C] for a moment i lose myself
[Dm] wrapped up in the pleasures of the [FIG.1] world

i've [C] journeyed here and [Dm] there and back [FIG.1] again
but in the [C] same old haunts i [Dm] still find my [FIG.1] friends
[C] mysteries not [Dm] ready to [FIG.1] reveal
[C] sympathies i'm [Dm] ready to [FIG.3] return
i'll make the effort, [FIG.2] love can last forever
[FIG.3] graceful swans of never [Dm] topple to the [C] earth
[Dm] tommorrow's just an [C] excuse
[Dm] tommorrow's just an [C] excuse
and [FIG.1] you can make it [C] last, [Dm] forever you
[FIG.2] you can make it [C] last, [Dm] forever you
[FIG.1] you can make it [C] last, [Dm] forever you
[C] [Dm] forever you
[FIG.1] [FIG.2] [FIG.1] end on "G"

It's quick, it's dirty, it might be a bit off, but here.
I'm not sure of the voicings, but the bass notes are right.
It's obviously in the key of G in an Eb-tuned guitar.
Tabbed by Galen Myers
Smashing Pumpkins - Thirty-Three off MCIS
It is dropped to Eb

C                A              G7
Speak to me in a language I can hear,
C           A              G7
Humour me before I have to go.
C       A                      G7
Deep in thought I forgive everyone,
       C                 A             G7
As the cluttered streets greet me once again.
G7                 C       A
I know I can't be late,
G7                 C       A
supper's on the table.
G7                         C     A
Tomorrow's just an excuse away,
G7                          C            A
So I pull my collar up and face the cold,

On my own.
C                    A            G7
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet,
C                    A            G7
At the Blasphemy in my old jangly walk.
C                      A          G7
Steeple guide me to my heart and home,
C                  A             G7
The sun is out and up and down again,
G7                    C
I know I ll make it, love can last forever,
G7                      D           C            D
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth, And you
     C       A       G7
Can make it last, forever you.
            C        A    G7
And you can make it last forever you.  G7
And for a moment I lose myself,
D
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world,
      C                   A            G7
I've journeyed here and there and back again.
           C         A                      G7
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends,
C             A         G7
Mysteries not ready to reveal,
C              A        G7
Sympathies I'm ready to return.
G7                     C
I'll make the effort, love can last forever.
G7                      D             C
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth.
D                   C
Tomorrow's just an excuse,
        C           A     G7
And you can make it last, forever you.
         C       A    G7
You can make it last, forever you.
