Lonely Day Solo by System Of A Down Song: LONELY DAY - SOLO Artist: SYSTEM OF A DOWN Tabber's note: This tab is, to my knowledge, the most accurate tab for the studio version of the solo from "Lonely day" on this site. This tab is one I designed from looking at other tabs that required multiple guitars or overdubs. So I made this tab so people can play the solo with one guitar. This tab is just for one guitar, however, I do include a rhythm tab at the bottom if two guitars (one rhythm and one lead) to play. This is more of a compilation that I made, for others to learn. The solo sounds better clean to me.
