Song: TOXICITY Artist: SYSTEM OF A DOWN Album: Toxicity Track No: 12 Label: American Submitted By: IcEmAn Tabbed by: Edd Dawson (All my own work). This was such a cool song I had to tab it. It's all pretty simple really, although it's a bit tricky sometimes to get those fast chord changes in the chorus sounding distinct, especially with a guitar tuned as low as you need for this song. Enjoy :) Any comments/corrections to: ma0etd@bath.ac.uk My notation: ^ means bend. [PALM MUTED... ...] means palm-mute the notes. [MUTED] also means palm-mute the notes. Only reason I used two different symbols for muting is that it looks neater in some places. Ok here's the structure: ------------------------ INTRO CHORUS (drums come in here) VERSE (singing starts here) CHORUS VERSE CHORUS POST-CHORUS CHORUS ENDING INTRO: Clean, All palm-muted.
