P.I.G. - System of a Down
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Vil Blackrose
Tuning: Drop B (Drop C but really not well tuned, if played in drop B, it sounds
more like the actual song)
Guitars:
Guitar I (High distortion)
[B,F#,B,E,G#,C#]
Guitar II (Solo, low distortion)
[B,F#,B,E,G#,C#]
Bass
[B,F#,B,E]
/=slides
h=hammer-on
p=pull-off
.=palm mute
~= If it's a single note, vibrato, if it's a power chord, let ring.
Play it with the song, or else, it's going to sound terrible to your poor ears.
INTRO!
