Title: This Cocaine Makes Me Feel Like I'm On This Song
Band: System of a Down
Album: Mezmerize
Tabbed by: Seen K. Leeds (05/07/05)

Tuning: Drop-D, down one half step (Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb aka C# G# C# F# A# D#)

FOREWARD: The following is another song from the new album. It is tabbed in Db because most of the 
songs on Mezmerize seem to be in that tuning. It is not hard to adjust it to CGCFAD, if you must (just 
move everything up one fret). Again, if you see any mistakes, point them out. I will correct them
and you will receive credit.

(NOTE - 6/28/05 - A rodent named "Vezy" stole the tab below -- and my "Sad Statue" tab -- and had 
 the gall to post it on MX over a month after I published it. He's a vile tab pirate -- throw 
 things at him if you see him on the street.)

KEY
b/r   = bend/release
t     = tremolo/fast picking
