I Am One  -- Smashing Pumpkins (Corgan/Iha)

Transcribed by Chris Carman (cecarman@miavx1.acs.muohio.edu)

This is the best I can do with this song.  I only have an acoustic guitar, so
I can't tab out guitar solos very well.  Hope you like it.

4 bar drum intro

4 bars of bass: (repeat 2x)

(Some guitar solo that I can't figure out with some pinch artificial
harmonics.)

(with verse guitar part):

I am one...

You'll burn (unison guitars)

(Back into more of Billy soloing and James playing his rhythm part with D'arcy.
  This goes on for about 8 bars or so)

Basically the "See you... blah blah" part again with Billy playing some sort of
 F#7 chord over it... either:

-----    --11-or-9--
-----    --10--
--9--    --11--
-11-- or ------ which isn't really an F#7, but you get the idea.
--9--    ------
-----    ------

End on the F# chord hits.
