I'm back with probably one of my greatest tabs yet. This tab has almost every bit of the
in it. The 2 solos are not included, but they are played in pattern 4 of the minor
blues scales. This is one of my favorite Alice Cooper songs. If you have any
questions just email me.

After the second solo:
"I stared at the squall line
I stared at the fault line
I see a funnel black there
I think I see a crack there
Landscapes alive
And it's movin my feet
All I need's a Holocaust
To make my day complete"
