Artist: Smashing Pumpkins
Song: Rocket (Acoustic)
Note: Based on 2007 tour acoustic version, not
the SD tour acoustic version allthough they are
very close.
These are just the basic chords for the song. Billy changes everything up
by alternating the chords a bit here and there. So if you want to play an
Dsus2where it says Dit will work aswell. Same goes with a Asus2or Am7where
it says A. I've just put the basic chords down so it'll be a little bit easier
for you to experiment with.
Also if you find it a bit boring to just play a Gchord thru-out the verse you
can for example throw in a Gwith a Fas the root (See Billys version from Oeiras
Festival, Portugal, 2007) or add a Cadd9chord at the end of every phrase, kind of
like they did with the acoustic versions in 1993.
