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

West by Marty Friedman from the album Scenes

Tabbed by Sean Kasun

This is part of West. I'll get the entire song done someday.

I'll also put the chords for the apreggios in sometime.

|-------------------||--------------------------------|----------------------|
|------------5---8~-||-----------5---8---10---12\8-8~-|------8---10~---------|
|----5---7----------||o--5---7------------------------|--9-------------------|
|-------------------||o-------------------------------|----------------------|
|-------------------||--------------------------------|----------------------|
|-------------------||--------------------------------|----------------------|
|---7----8-----10--7--8-|--7----------------------------------------||
|-----------------------|-----8---10-----8---------------------8~---||
|-----------------------|-------------------10----8------7--9------o||
|-----------------------|-----------------------------10-----------o||
|-----------------------|-------------------------------------------||
|-----------------------|-------------------------------------------||

The above is played over and over... Then he arpeggiates the following

on top:

|--8----5------------------------8----5------------------------------|
|----8----5--8----5----------------8----5--8----5--------------------|
|--------------7----5--7----5----------------7----5--7----5----------|

Enjoy...
