ALICE COOPER
I'm eighteen
All fills and the solo goes on the E blues-scale. They look hard,
but they're really easy, 'cos I've been playing guitar for just 6 months,
and I got all these (except the main riff) just by listening to the record !
The chords in the verse goes like: E, C, D and C, D.
There's also an A, B, C, and D part, but it's marked on the lyrics.
Main Riff
E5 C5 D5

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I've got an baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took 18 years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm living in a middle of doubt - 'Cos I'm

Eighteen I get confuzed every day - Eighteen I just don't know what to say
Eighteen I got to get away !
