guitarists-Dick Wagner, Steve Hunter
words by-Alice Cooper
tabbed by-smellslikefeet1
HERE IT IS! finally the Alice Cooper song everyones been waiting for..well not really.
its the one ive been waiting for.. but since is hasnt shown up i decided to take
matters into my own hands. so yeah if this isnt completely right i apologize but i just
couldnt bare this site not having a version of this tab any longer! so here it is
/slide
h-hammeron
v1-verse1 lyrics
v2-verse2 lyrics
b-bend up
to get the intro to sound right you have to play the chords soft and slow.
the hammerons in the intro are optional but personally i think they sound more corect to the song.
verse 1 and 2 are writen above the pending guitar part.

this song is the start of the album which is a concept album...the title says it all....the album is based on "steven" and a nightmare he goes through, alice plays steven and on the album from a 3rd person viewpoint and only rarely refers to himself as steven...( also vincent price is on this song) it's a good song and an amazing album

The whole "Welcome to my Nightmare" album is a story about Steven. The start of the story is Steven beginning his nightmare, "Welcome to my Nightmare." The nightmare begins with Steven caught in a spider's web were he believes he must obey the black widow to survive, "The Black Widow." Then in "Some Folks" Steven talks about his love for murdering women and their dead corpses. He then sings about abusing his wife in "Only Women Bleed" which leads to him dreaming of having sex with a female corpse, "Cold Ethyl." He reveals that he had a bad childhood and refuses to be a man in "Years Ago." He goes on a rampage from his lost innocence, unknowingly murdering his wife while sleep walking hearing her scream his name,STEVEN! in "Steven." He awakens and finds out that he has murdered his wife when he sees the blood stains on his hands in "The Awakening." As a result of realizing that it was no dream and that he killed his wife he tries to escape with alcohol in "Escape." He returns in other songs like, "Wing Up Toy" where he admits that he believes he is still a child and is lost in a nightmare. 1
