E--------------------------------------------------------------- p.m-----| p.m.-| then chorus and riff1 till the end with an adlib solo in E well this is it. this is a great song he sounds like he is preaching us and somehow we believe him the verses are way off I just can't make out what he plays, the intro chorus and solos are fairly acurate but if someone knows the correct way to play this please email me at pedro.sousa@mail.teleweb.pt long live the Cult the greatest and most honest band since Led zeppelin
