Radio Video Chords & Tabs
Band- System Of A Down
Song- Radio/Video
Album- Mesmerize
Tuning: Standard (E A D G)
I've worked hard on this tab, and I know for a fact it is far more accurate than any of
tabs for this song in archive.
And please, please OPEN YOUR EARS. Listen, listen, and listen some more. This tab is
99%. I worked on it a lot!
Unlike most on this site, I tab the ACTUAL BASSLINES. I DON'T transcribe what the guitar
in a bass tab. Trust me on this. Listen to the song twenty, thirty, forty, hell, fifty
times in a row, then tell
this is wrong. LEARN TO USE YOUR EARS PEOPLE.
