"By Starlight" is from the CD Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Written by William Corgan Jr.
Performed by The Smashing Pumpkins
Tabbed by Rich Santos of Baltimore Md.

Here is a tab. of 'By Starlight'. I've been waiting and waiting for 
someone else to do it, but no one did so.... This is the first song I've 
ever tabbed besides "Ride It On" by Mazzy so I hope it's close. This song 
is beautiful, quite "Lunaesque". It has some effects that make me think 
there may be some 
keyboard on that swelling part that the song fades in with. During the 
verses, you can play any high string of the chord and it will sound nice. I 
didn't tab every little fill, but it's a pretty open song so...have fun:
