Band: 	System of a Down

Album:	Mezmerize

Tabbed: Richard Strothman
Tuning: Db,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb

Use your own rythm do decide how many times to play the notes
I'm only posting which notes to play, not exact number of times
to play them.

Intro: Overdriven Tone
Eb------------------------------------I
Bb------------------------------------I
Gb------------------------------------I
Db------------------------------------I x4
Ab--5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5----6----I
Db-—----------------------------------I
Full Distortion
Before vocals A:
Eb----------------------------------------------------I
Bb----------------------------------------------------I
Gb--7-------------------------------------------------I
Db--7-------------------------------------------------I
Ab--5-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5--6--I
Db----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------------I
   PM--------------/
(Above zeros mean massive fast palm mutes)

Before vocals B:
Eb----------------------------------------------------I
Bb----------------------------------------------------I
Gb--7--------------------------8--------10---------8--I
Db--7--------------------------8--------10---------8--I
Ab--5-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------6---------8---------6--I
Db----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------------I
   PM--------------/

Before vocals C:
Eb----------------------------------------------------I
Bb----------------------------------------------------I
Gb--7-------------------------------------------------I
Db--7-------------------------------------------------I
Ab--5-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5p0-5--6--I
Db----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------------I
   PM--------------/

Before vocals C:

Db----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---10\--------------------------I
   PM--------------/

Now repeat A, B, C, Chord diagramD MajorD but where the Palm Muting is,
slow it down. Just listen to the song, it makes sense there.

(You and me will...)
On the first time, Use funky chorus swell effect with overdrive.
On the second time, use full distortion and let ring, both times.

Quiet part while they are finishing the word "generation"...
Eb-------------------I-------------------I
Bb-------------------I-------------------I
Gb------7---8---7----I-------7---6---7---I
Db----8---8---8---8--I-----5---5---5-----I
Ab--6----------------I-------------------I

Continued...
Eb-------------------I-------------------I
Bb-------------------I-------------------I
Gb-------------------I------7---6----7---I
Db------7---8---7----I----8---8---8------I
Ab----5---5---5---5--I--6----------------I
Db--0----------------I-------------------I
(Might not be right, but it's close)


I'm not really sure on the next part because there is too much
noise for me to hear what he's playing.
