The unthinking majority
This is my first tab and it was done by ear so id say its accurate for a first time
(the intro and tuning are right though the harmonics in EADGBE would be on the 5th fret
the B string which is pretty
difficult to play a tap harmonic on for the intro)
Tuning
C G C F A D (both guitars)
Tablature Legend
----------------
S - shift slide
- natural harmonic
n(n) - tapped harmonic
T - tap
PM - palm muting
Intro
Guitar 1 (lightly strum with distortion)

The Unthinking Majority - Serj Tankian
We don't need your democracy.
Execute them kindly for me.
Take them by their filthy nostrils
Put them up in doggy hostels.
We don't need your hypocrisy
Execute real democracy.
