Fuck You (An Ode to No One) by Smashing Pumpkins
4/4 time. Heavy distortion. Listen to the song for reference to rhythms and guitar 2.
F#5 (eighth notes with palm muting for 4 measures)
F#5
i'm never coming back, i'm never giving in
A5 F#5
i'll never be the shine in your spit
F#5
i disconnect the act, i disconnect the dots
A5 F#5 (gradually open from palm muting to ringing chord)
i disconnect the me in me
F#5 E5 A5 (let chords ring, 3 measures)
F#5 E5 (4’th measure, let E chord ring for rest of measure)
F#5 E5 A5
and you're mis -tak -en,
it's you that's fak -ing
living breath -ing
and dying too
this mes -sage is for
anyone who dares to
hear A
F#5 E5 (let E chord ring for rest of measure)
fool
F#5 (with palm muting for 2 measures)
F#5
you can't bring me back, you can't bring me back
A5 F#5 (open from palm muting to ringing chord)
cause i gave it all back to you
F#5 E5 A5
thru sacred alleys,
the living wrecks
wreak their havoc
upon this world
the disenchanted,
The romantics,
the body face and
soul of you is
B5 C#5 F#5
gone down that deep black hole
F#5 E5 A5 (2 measures)
F#5 E5 A5 (2x)
destroy the mind
destroy the bo dy
but you cannot des-
-troy the heart and
F#5 G#5 A5 B5 C#5 A5 F#5
you, you make me so i need to disconnect
and you make it so real i don't need your love to disconnect
F#5 / (gliss) A5 F#5 (real fast 4 measures)
E5 (let E ring through 5’th measure of this section)
F#5 (palm muting, 2 measures then lyrics are spoken, lots of feedback/ noise on guitar 2)
to runaround kids in get-go cars
with vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs
galaxies full of nobodies
giving us the farewell runarounds
i took a virgin mary axe to his sweet baby jane, (slow down & open strings)
lost my innocence to a no good girl,(even slower now)
scratch my face with anvil hands,
(staccato F#5 chord then these lyrics are sung acapella)
and coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth
A maj E maj F#5 (3x, feedback and gliss. with F#5)
and i give it all back to you
E5 (4 measures, palm muting slowly releases to open chord)
Its for you
(chords ring)
F#5 G#5 A5 B5 C#5 A5 F#5
no way, i don't need it, i don't need your love to disconnect
and you make it, so real, i don't need your love to disconnect
F#5 / (gliss) A5 E F#5 (real fast 4 measures)
E5 (let E ring through 5’th measure of this section)
F#5 E5 A5 (8 measures under guitar solo)
F#5 G#5 A5 B5 C#5 A5 F#5(2x)
No way, no way, no way -ay -ay to disconnect
and you make it, so real, i don't need your love to disconnect
F#5 / (gliss) A5 E F#5 (real fast 4 measures)
F#5 / (gliss) A5 E (let E ring on 4’th measure. This is a good song for a big noisy ending.)
(Now smash your guitar, bow and toss your pick into the crowd.)
