Red face Meladori Magpie chords and tuning.

Every tab I've seen of this has been wrong, even Brian "that tab guy" (obscured), and I've been playing it wrong forever too. Anyway, the tuning is EADF#BE, and the chords are:

Code:
  e|-------|-------|-------|-------|--------|
  b|---7---|---5---|---3---|---2---|---12---|
 F#|---0---|---0---|---0---|---0---|---0----|
  D|---7---|---5---|---0---|---2---|---12---|
  A|---5---|---3---|---2---|---0---|---10---|
  E|-------|-------|-------|-------|--------|
I discovered this when I actually listened to it.

Question

Man, am I the only person who learned Pumpkins songs through Craig Newnes's tabs? Pretty sure they used to be hosted here. I was a total beginner, but his stuff always sounded right to me, and I liked that he put in the lyrics in the right places so I could get a better sense of the timing.

Everyone seems to worship "that tab guy" but you know what? You know what? I don't.

GOD BLESS CRAIG NEWNES WHEREVER YOU ARE BIG GUY

like you have to anchor your pointer finger on the 5 then arch your ring/pinky finger back for the 7, making sure not to mute the F#

the ruby intro has a similar shape. drives me nuts

yeah totally the same shape. i don't have a problem with it in this case, i guess since it's the lower/thicker strings. ruby isn't too bad but is a bit harder to play cleanly. but accidentally muting the open string isn't an issue in my case

It may be a half step down. I can't remember.

Brian "that tab guy" says its in standard.

It's not a half step down, I played it along with the record a couple days ago.
