Additions, corrections welcome! Tabbing this would have been a lot easier if I'd had my friends' video With a zoom and slow motion!

SHE SELLS SANCTUARY The Cult

Tune your guitar up a semitone (seems a common feature of goth songs!) I can't get their tone on my setup, but it helps to use the front two pickups And turn the treble right down on the amp.

I have a suspicion the song is based on some species of sliding Em scale, Which means there could be better ways of fingering a lot of the notes Or putting in slides in different places. You'll just have to work out what Sounds good/is easy to play yourself! For the time being I'll put brackets Round notes when I'm not sure where they're played, or if they're not always Played every time, or if I can't tell which is played!

Intro

The least accurate part of the tab first... played with phasing and repeat Pedals so you can't work it out...

RIFF A played twice

other ending> e

On the beats marked with an asterisk someone strums an F chord on an accoustic With lovely new strings! Towards the end of the song the riff is played again with the alternative Ending.

Verse

Sounds like someone's playing a palm-muted F power chord in the verses and Strumming different strings, kind of like

E 6 6 B 6 6 D 3 3 3 3

RIFF B played twice

Verse

The world drags me down

Riff A played twice

Verse

Riff B
