Chords with lyrics
Here is my "tab" for the Cult's INDIAN. This is one
of a few songs Ian wrote the music to for the CEREMONY album.
(Beggars Banquet, 1991)
INDIAN
Astbury/Duffy
Trans. by Scott Coates [email protected]
This is an easy little acoustic number that's actually a lot
of fun to play, and a good one to use for a starter band or
for several intermediate musicians to get used to playing with others.
The verse is just 2 chords (Am, 
E minorEm) and the chorus stretches to 4!
(Hey it's not the most difficult song they've ever written, okay?)
Also the song has little "blusey" runs and licks all throughout, along
with the solo, I didn't actually put theme here, but hey, have fun with
it!
Intro:

Verse 3: (Everybody's favourite Am/Em riff)
Chorus
Ad lib over chorus' chords.
End when you hold that D MajorD chord on "help me girl"
NOTE: an "x" indicates a tambourine slam in the chorus,
and means "twice" if followed by a number. Ie: (x2)
and "x~~~~~~~~~" is a tambourine slam and shake.
(Is that considered drum tab?)
Have fun with this track, y'all, and for more Cult info see
