spaceboy -- by smashing pumpkins

Finally, an acoustic song! of course, that's excluding Disarm...
This song is actually pretty easy, if you disregard the violin & cello..
Main riff:
|--repeat 3x----| ----------------|--------0---------0---------- --0-0--0-0-0-0--|--0-----0---------0---------- --0-0--0-0-0-0--|--0-----0---------0---------- --3/5--5-5/9-9--|--7--10-10--10-10-10--10-10-- --3/5--5-5/9-9--|--7--10-10--10-10-10--10-10-- --1/3--3-3/7-7--|--5--8--8---8--8--8---8--8---
play this main acoustic riff throughout most of the song, or play the chords
marked in the lyrics....
(riff)
Feel it break your bones mr. jones
Taste me as I bleed, taste my need
Spaceboy, I've [G]missed you, [Am(i)]spinning round my [Em(i)]head
[C(i)]Anyway you [G]choose me, I [D]break ins[Em]tead
(riff)
Watch me, death defy, defile my life
I don't need, if I don't care

Please I want to go home..I want to go home..
I want to go home, I want to go home
Cause when a lover aches, that's when a lover breaks
I want to go home, I want to go home...
Now just play the following riff twice for the instrumental:
