Song: Today (acoustic) Album: MTV Unplugged Band: Smashing Pumpkins The tuning for this song is normal EADGBE tuning, it's slightly different than the album version so bear with me.

S= slide H= hammer on P= pick off The song does not have a solo intro like the other one so both guitars play this. figure 1 e|-------------------------------------------------------------| b|------8-8-8-----8-8-8-x-x------------------------------------| g|------8-8-8-x-x-7-7-7-x-x------------------------------------| d|------8-8-8-x-x-8-8-8-x-x-6-6-6-6-6-6-5s6-5s6----------------| (2x) a|------6-6-6-x-x-8-8-8-x-x-6-6-6-6-6-6-5s6-5s6----------------| e|----------------- 6-6-6-x-x-4-4-4-4-4-4-3s4-3s4--------------| figure 2 e|-------------------------------------------------------------| b|---------------------8-8-8-X-X-------------------------------| g|-------8-8-8-X-X-7-7-7-X-X-5-5-5-X-X-------------------------| (1x) d|------ 8-8-8-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-5-5-5-X-X-6-6-6-------------------| a|-------6-6-6-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-3-3-3-X-X-6-6-6-------------------| e|---------------------6-6-6-X-X---------------4-4-4-----------| figure 3 e|-------------------------------------------------------------| b|----------------------8-8-8-X-X------------------------------| g|--------8-8-8-X-X-7-7-7-X-X----------------------------------| d|--------8-8-8-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6--------------| a|--------6-6-6-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6--------------| e|----------------------6-6-6-X-X-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4----------| and then end short onthis then kinda slide off and fade. e|------------| b|----8-------| g|----8-------| d|----8-------| a|----6-------| e|------------| after that then the guitar stops and the drums go solo while billy sings.
