You Drive Me Nervous
Alice Cooper
Text File
Band: Alice Cooper
Song: You Drive Me Nervous
Album: Killer
Year: 1971
Tabbed by DoteStudios

NOTE: When Alice sings the "Nervous, nervous..." part, Guitar 1 (Glen Buxton) trills:
and whammys while doing so. IF you do not have a whammy bar, pull the Ryan Roxie trick:
trilling the notes grab the string (on the opposite side of where you strum) and pull it
slowly while vibrating it with your finger. Doing this will make the notes sound like
are getting higher. Cool trick.
ALSO Use the keys I listed to understand the tab, mine are different than other tabs,
if you were wondering (in case you've seen my others) I've changed the strike in a bend
to < >. Also I will have the solos completed later. I removed the vocals from the song
tab this. Enjoy!
