The Smashing Pumpkins is an American alternative rock band from Chicago. Formed in 1988 by frontman Billy Corgan (lead vocals, guitar), D'arcy Wretzky (bass), James Iha (guitar), and Jimmy Chamberlin (drums), the band has undergone many line-up changes. The current lineup features Corgan, Chamberlin, Iha and guitarist Jeff Schroeder.
Disavowing the punk rock roots of many of their alt-rock contemporaries, they have a diverse, densely layered, and guitar-heavy sound

D/F#AmBbGD/F# Get on board, this train ain't going to stop. AmBbGD/F# Where I'm going, I don't know. You'll know, you'll know, you'll know. AmBbGD/F# Wheels on fire, wings of nascent desire. AmBbG Punch your ticket, it's time to go......
AmBbGD/F#AmBbGF There's a force up around the bend, that drives this engine apart.
AmGCD/F#Am Are you with us? Or against us? FAmGCD/F#AmG Are you with us, or against us tonight? It's alright..... BbGAmG There's a matter of reckoning this fight. It's alright..... BbGAmAmAmAm Are you with us tonight? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright! D/F#AmBbGD/F#AmBbG ......................Are you with us tonight?.................
D/F#AmBbGD/F# Soon we'll fly. But on this eve we ride. AmBbGD/F# A steel horse tied to dirt. The words, the words, the words. AmBbGD/F# No words will suffice, against this sacrifice. AmBbG But what is love, if not cause?.....
AmBbGD/F#AmBbGF My misdeeds will scurry home.... Dust and breath and bone....
AmGCD/F#Am Are you with us? Or against us? FAmGCD/F#Am Are you with us? Or against us? FAmGCD/F#Am Are you with us, are you with us? FAmGCD/F#AmG Are you with us, or against us tonight?.....
BbGAmG It's a matter of us and them this fight. It's alright..... BbGAmAmAmAm Are you with us tonight? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright!
FAmBbG Are you with us? Are you with us? FAmBbGF Are you with us, or against us tonight? AmBbG Are you with us, or against us? FAmBbGF Are you with us, or against us tonight?
