Song: Let Me Give The World To You (Acoustic)
Artist: Smashing Pumpkins
Album: Machina Acoustic Demos
Tabbed by: Charlie Lewis
Email: sci-fi-lullaby@hotmail.co.uk

This is a tab for the acoustic version of 'let me give the world to you', its pretty
similar to the album version so will be easy for you to play even if you havent
heard the acoustic one. There are a couple of quite far stretches in the intro and verse
but use your little finger on the Db string you should get used to it, lol sorry if that
sounds patronising :)
Please rate!

Tuning: Half step down

Chords in Song:


      C#m7     E       A       Am      B       F#     EM7    Asus2

  LYRICS!

  Last chance to make believe in
  Always and all it seems
  Train wrecks hide underneath
  Your umbrella
  Set the frame
  Destiny, on this last name soliloquy
  Tired symphonies played downward

  Let me give the world to you, my love
  Let me give the world to you, my love
  Let me show you what I'm thinking of
  Let me give the world to you, my love

  Lovers form dead excuse
  And blur the lines with soul abuse
  My lonesome lies just have no use around here
  New skin may hold you in
  But the old skin still turns us on
  Flicker fades the nitrate dawn to where

  Let me give the world to you, my love
  Let me show you what i'm thinking of, my love
  Times are hard and we're the last in line
  'Cause in my grief I'd forgotten what was mine

  And I wouldn't change a thing
  No, I, no, I
  No, I wouldn't change a thing
  About the way you are
  The distance here
  The speed so far
  So far
  So far
  So far

  Let me give the world to you, my love
  Let me give the world to you, my love
  Let me give the world to you
  Let me give the world to you
  Let me give the world to you
  Let me give the world to you
  Let me give the world to you


ENJOY!! Comments or constructive criticism welcome!!
