She Sells Sanctuary was a single from the rock band The Cult's Love album in 1985. This song appears in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.
The band has released various versions of this song. In June, 1985, a few months prior to the release of the Love album, three versions had been released: The Long Version, The Howling Mix, and Assault on Sanctuary. It is the last song to be recorded with The Cult's drummer and close friend of Ian Astbury, Nigel Preston. In 1993, several more mixes were released on two different CD singles, each called Sanctuary MCMXCIII volumes one and two. The "Sundance" remix was remixed by Butch Vig who previously had produced Nirvana's Nevermind Album. The "Dog Star Rising" remix was remixed by "Youth" who has produced The Cult's latest album Born Into This.

(Intro Space Guitar)
(Santuary Riff 1)
(Verse 1)
Oh the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And the heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn
(Verse Interlude 1)
(Verse 2)
The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive, keeps me alive
(Chorus 1)
The world
And the world turns around
The world and the world, yeah
The world drags me down
(Santuary Riff 2)
(Verse 3)
Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And the heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn, yeah
(Verse Interlude 2)
Yeah-hey...
(Verse 4)
The fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
I'm sure in her you'll find
The sanctuary
I'm sure in her you'll find
The sanctuary
(Chorus 2)
And the world
The world turns around
And the world and the world
The world drags me down
And the world and the world and the world
The world turns around
And the world and the world and the world and the world
The world drags me down
(Breakdown Space Guitar)
Ah...

Yeah, the world drags me down
And the world
Yeah, the world turns around
And the world and the world
The world drags me down
