Dude i think its 100% the guy above me is totally wrong i love your tab
KormosKormosUnknown Date
Dude, Jimmytheking is wrong. I have the tab book and it's 100% correct. Great job!
Krock101Krock101Unknown Date
Its perfect cept you don't gotta sus the Bb (adding the ten's) just ply a straight up Bb in Drop C position.
ragesystemnirvanametallicaragesystemnirvanametallicaUnknown Date
On the 8th riff/part of your tab. It should be 12...10...9...7.Maybe you already figured this out but just in case. Otherwise good job.
batgirlbatgirlUnknown Date

Ilovemy4stringIlovemy4stringUnknown Date
this tab is right 100% but i found that after you put that power chored 5/7 put another one going up realy fast
poiuyt69poiuyt69Unknown Date
this tab is PERFECT! but it could have saved you some time (and me some paper and ink wen i printed it) if you made an order since alot of it repeats in different places. its still not too late to make one but im not your boss
wero14wero14Unknown Date
The intro is right but there's a tiny flaw. It goes like this.

you have to listen carefully, other than that it's perfect. If you have any questions e-mail me at mad_guitarist13@hotmail.com

Dammit, hold on i made a mistake. it's like this.
buzzfastbuzzfastUnknown Date
The intro is all wrong, the guitar plays three notes over and over
popstarthreat3000popstarthreat3000Unknown Date
buzzfast you are wrong there is more than three notes in the intro. You must be tone death. This tab is very good....
David55David55Unknown Date
Play the intro fast like this
JoeyJBGJoeyJBGUnknown Date
Very good! The only things that are possibly wrong are very small so it doesen't matter very much. As far as the tuning goes, CGCFAD is correct for the most part. Only a background guitar part that you didn't tab used the tuning CGCFGC. It plays this part in the background during the chorus:





-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0----


---0-----0-----0-----0-----0------


----------------------------------


-3-----2-----0-----0-----0-----0--(etc.)


----------------------------------


----------------------------------





It follows the same pattern as the normal guitar, but doubles it an octave up (because it's tuned CGCFGC).

joey is very very wrong.

The tab is perfect and all you posers think you know your crap, The Toxicity tab booky thingy is exactly like his, and I dont think they made a mistake unless Your capping on Daron and saying he plays it wrong, but no one on earth should even dare to speak wrongfully about Daron or they shall suffer dire consequences!

this is more of a suggestion than a correction. On the very end, instead of playing this:


----0---------0------0-----


--0--------0-------0-------


0--------0-------0------0-





play this chord:


---------------------


----3----------------


----2----------------


----0----------------


----0----------------


----0----------------





that way it sounds more like the recording

after the first series in the intro try this:


C------0------0-----0-----0-----0----


G----0------0-----0-----0-----0------


C-12-----10-----7-----7-----7--------





C------0------0------0------0------0----


G----0------0------0------0------0------


C-14-----12-----10-----10-----10--------





C------0------0------0------0------0----


G----0------0------0------0------0------


C-12-----14-----15-----17-----15--------





C------0------0------0-----0-----0----


G----0------0------0-----0-----0------


C-14-----12-----10-----7-----7--------

great tab, just how i play it.


The only thing wrong is that the tuning is wrong. All you need to is drop the 6th string to a D.


I.e D A D G B E


thats the proper way





and with the verse, the best strumming pattern is:Up/Dwn = Up Stroke/ Down Stroke


Dwn Up DwnUP Dwn


D-10-10-(10-10-10)------------


A-8--8--(8--8--8-)------------x2 (x1)


D-8- 8--(8--8--8 )-------------





Up/Dwn = Up Stroke/ Down Stroke

ok awesome tab thats exactly how i play it, daron malakian is a god, so wat if his songs are easy to play, thats wat he wanted them to be, its his creativity that makes him a god, and when u use


10 and go down the frets i just use 10


x 7


7 7


it just mite make it at least a lil bit easier for beginers to use chords instead of muting the middle string
