Serj Tankian - Praise The Lord And Pass The Ammunition - Standard Tuning

Tabbed by: Starminn
E-Mail: Robr3rd@aol.com

Firstly, this is my first ever tab, and is done completely by ear, so if some parts seem
be off, please feel absolutely free to e-mail me at the above address for corrections
tips to help make this and future tabs better.

Also, Guitar 1 & 2 aren't actually a lead & rhythm part, but merely to show that the two
different, and how they compare.

NOTICE: This is a very trippy song with many artificial tones as well as real, so I am
doing the main parts. BECAUSE this song is trippy, it is extremely important to listen in
timing. Also, some parts may sound a bit odd, however play along with the song and it 
all be right, though there may be too many slides >.<

Enjoy! ^^
