Alice Cooper - You Drive Me Nervous Tab

NOTE: When Alice sings the "Nervous, nervous..." part, Guitar 1 (Glen Buxton) trills and
doing so. IF you do not have a whammy bar, pull the Ryan Roxie trick: trilling the
while grabbing the string (on the opposite side of where you strum) and pull up on
while vibrating it with your finger. Doing this will make the notes sound like they're
higher. Cool trick.

ALSO Use the keys I listed to understand the tab, mine are different than other tabs, if
were wondering (in case you've seen my others) I've changed the strike in a bend to < > Enjoy!
