all played twice, but the first time it ends:
|-----------------|

|-0-0-0-2-2-2-----|

and the second time it ends:

|--------------6--7-7-7-9--|
|-0-0-0-2-2-2--6--7-7-7-9--|

Then, the lyrics start to Chad's accompanyment of:

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

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

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-|
B|----------------------14-----14-12-------------|
G|-s11-13-----s11-13-----------------14----------|

G|----------14----------------14-14----13-14~9---|
D|-----------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------|

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:
e|--14-11-14-11-14-11-14-11-14-11-14-11-16--18-16-14-11--|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------| twice

e|-----12-11-----12-11-----12-11-----12-11-----5-2-----5-2-----5-2-----5-2-|

G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---3-------3-------3-------3-------2-------2-------2-------2-----|
E|-1-------1-------1-------1-------0-------0-------0-------0-------|

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|-----9-7---------------------------9-7-------------------------------------|

G|---------------12----12-14-------------------------------------------------|
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|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
