Westbound (ver 2) by Allister
Westbound by Allister
Amazing song. It was easy to figure out and easy to play but it is a great song
with great lyrics. Best album I own. Check �em out www.allisterrock.com.
The very end of the solo is very hard to hear so that may not be totally correct
but I�m pretty sure everything else is
~= let ring
p= pull off

verse 1- Driving through nights on empty roads, Hoping the clubs promote our
shows, Wasting days with endless naps, Finding ways to fill the gaps
verse 2- Reading to save our numbing minds, Meeting friends we�ll leave behind,
Lay on the loft and trace the stars, Start the day in no ones arms

chorus- I�m forced awake again in time to take the stage, and as my dream world
fades, another takes its place, I look into the crowd and see my self through
stares, Back when I hoped someday I�d be the one up there
