Bright Side of the Road Single release by Van Morrison in 1979. Charted at 63 in UK Bass performance David Hayes. Tab by bass50611. Welcome to my tab. This how I would play this song on stage, but not exact as original And it does fit this bright and cheerful song. Shame it didn’t Chart higher in the UK.
