System of a Down (Mouseover for the latest Ozzy Osbourne Videos and News)  Send " System of a Down" Ringtones to your Cell The Tabs Are Below Learn To Read Tab Chords Handbook Corrections & Additions Guitar Lessons Get Official Tab SOAD tabs @ 911Tabs Author/Artist: System Of A Down Title: Chop Suey Album: Toxicity Transcribed by: Sergio Moreno Email: stangaddict@hotmail.com   There is a lot of overdubbing in this song. For the intro, Riff 1 is played four times: once by itself, the second time accompanied by Riff 2, and the third and fourth times accompanied by Riff 2 and 3.   For the chorus, Daron plays a slight variation of Riff 2 and Riff 3. He also plays riff using a bouzouki during the chorus and towards the end of the song. If you are wondering which part is played by the bouzouki, it is the instrument that plays the notes Serj is singing when he says "self-rightous suicide" and "angels deserve to die". The bouzouki adds a nice piano-like sound.   The asterisks (*) mean that the measures are repeated. If you have any comments, suggestions, or want to point out a mistake, please email me.   The tuning for this song is as follows: D A F C G C   |------------------------|-----------------------| |------------------------|-----------------------| |5--5-5-5-5--5-5-5-5--5-5|5/7---7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-| |7--7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7--7-7|7/9---9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9-| |0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0--0-0|0-0---0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-| |------------------------|-----------------------| Riff 1   |--------------------|-------------------| |--------------------|-------------------| |4--4-4-4-4--4-4-4-4-|2--2-2-2-2--2-2-2-2| |5--5-5-5-5--5-5-5-5-|3--3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3| |0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-|0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0| |--------------------|-------------------|     |------------|-----------|-----------|-----------| |------------|-----------|-----------|-----------| |-5---5---5--|7---7---7--|4---4---4--|2---2---2--| |---7---7---7|--9---9---9|--5---5---5|--3---3---3| |------------|-----------|-----------|-----------| |------------|-----------|-----------|-----------| Riff 2     |-/8--|/10-|-7-|-12-|-12-|-13-|-10-|-13-| |-/10-|/12-|-8-|-13-|-13-|-15-|-12-|-15-| |-----|----|---|----|----|----|----|----| |-----|----|---|----|----|----|----|----| |-----|----|---|----|----|----|----|----| |-----|----|---|----|----|----|----|----| Riff 3 strum each chord 16 times every measure     |----------|-------------|---------------------------------| |----------|-------------|---------------------------------| |*---------|------------*|*--------------------------------| |*---------|------------*|*--------------------------------| |-7h8--6h7-|-9h10--11h12-|---------------------------------| |-7h8--6h7-|-9h10--11h12-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-| Riff 4 play each hammer-on 4 times.
