System of a Down
Kill Rock n Roll Live at Big Day Out 2005
 
Tuning: Standard System tuning (high to low- DAFCGC)
 
This is an awesome song from System's new album and can be downloaded from soadonefnet.com
 
Before the song, Daron says:
 
"When I was a little boy
I used to talk to God.
And I said you motherfucker
And he said you motherfucker
Gotta grow up
And kill rock and roll
He said kill rock and roll
And fuck all the sexy people
So I did"
