A few times.

Then we have the "I'm emotionally raped by Jesus" bit, which is

A F#m A F#m D E F#m

then, a pause. Then, the "What now of my faith..." bit, which is

e|--------12---------12-----12----------12~14-14-|

also, a few times.

Then, the cher-chung! bit, which is the bottom two or three strings of a B chord (024442),

with this picked over it:

e|-------------------5-6-7--|

B|----7-6-----7-6-----------|

G|----------------7---------|

D|--9-------9---------------|

A|--------------------------|

E|--------------------------|

With various mutations of that played as well. Then, a piano break:

B|-------------------------------------------------------|

G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

A|---3-------3-------3-------3-------2-------2-------2-------2-----|

continuously.

After one time through, the guitars are back (yay) for another solo:

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

G|-9-8---------------------------9-8-----------------9-8-9-11--11/13---------|

D|-----------------------------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-----|

A|---------------------------0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------|

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then it's

A

I need replacement

Dm

To feel redefined

F Dm

And it's just this matter of identity

A

You preach elastic

Dm

To your jagged flock

F Dm

It's an eerie passion for self-flattery

e|-----5-------------2-----------------5-------------2-|

B|---5-------------2-----------------5-------------2---|

G|-----------------------------------------------------|

D|-7-------------4-----------------7-------------4-----|

A|-----------------------------------------------------|

E|-----------------------------------------------------|

Emotionally I'm wrapped in shame, Emotionally I feel I'm raped

Oh, emotionally in chains.

then there's a fuzzy version of the earlier riff, that goes something like this...

e|-------12-------12-------------12-------12-------12----------12-14-|

B|-------------------14-12----------14-12----14-12----14-12----------|

G|-11-13----11-13----------11-13----------------------------14-------|

D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

e|----14----14-------14-------12----12---------------------------------------|

B|-14----14----14-12----14-12----14----14-14-------12-12---------------------|

G|-------------------------------------------14-14----13-13-14-9-9-9h11p9-11-|

D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
