___________________ / System of a Down / This song tells about how senseless the American government's / Prison Song / way of handling the growing drug issue is, as they are using / Toxicity / more money on the prison sector than they are using on getting /__________________/ rid of the criminal drug addicts that actually load them. Guitar I (C G C F A D) - Electric, Heavily Distorted Guitar II (C G C F A D) - Electric, Crunchy Guitar III (D G C F A D) - Acoustic, Clean *note* the waiting time in the intro is very tricky - I won't assure that it's 100% correct, but this is my best suggestion, and I won't exclude that it may be the band's common feeling!
