Muscle of Love

Alice Cooper
Tab
3.8(5)

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Who's the queen of the lockeroom?

Who's the cream of the crop?

Thank God she wouldn't stop

Well I must have gone to their crazy head,

Where everything is hot.

I know the thoughts are not.

Holy muscle of love, I got a muscle of love

I read Dad's books like I did before,

Now things are crystal clear.

Lock the door in the bathroom now,
