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

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:

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

continuously.

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

 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

And it's [F]just this matter of [Dm]identity

[A]You preach elastic

[Dm]To your jagged flock

It's an [F]eerie passion for [Dm]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-|
