Band: Alice Cooper Song: You Drive Me Nervous Album: Killer Year: 1971 Tabbed by DoteStudios Emails is undermywheels71@gmail.com NOTE: When Alice sings the "Nervous, nervous..." part, Guitar 1 (Glen Buxton) trills and while doing so. IF you do not have a whammy bar, pull the Ryan Roxie trick: trilling notes while grabbing the string (on the opposite side of where you strum) and pull up on slowly while vibrating it with your finger. Doing this will make the notes sound like getting 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! Keys b = bend r = release = slide up neck / = slide down neck h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = hold note w = whammy bar v = vibrato < > = strike the notes in between the symbols while in the bend D = strum down U = strum up Intro DU (xx0232@1)DE----------------| (xx0232@1)B----------------| G-7-7-7~~~-------| D-7-7-7~~~-------| A-5-5-5~~~-------| E-5-5-5~~~-------| Main riff during song
