Biography:
"For us, ALO is more than just a band and we're more than just a group of great friends making music together… ALO is our lifestyle."
With this simple aphorism, keyboardist/vocalist Zach Gill sums up the unique dynamic that defines ALO (Animal Liberation Orchestra). Born from a friendship nurtured during their days at the University of California Santa Barbara, the four-piece collective includes Steve Adams (bass/vocals), Dan Lebowitz (guitars/percussion/vocals) and David Brogan (drums/vocals).

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
ALO are a great band and this is a great song from their album 'Roses & Clover'
A lot of the chords are done on piano and synth with a few chords on electric guitar.
I would strongly recommend their albums.
Intro:
Dm A F G Bb A Dm A Dm
Verse 1:
Standing on the stage struggling to get his instrument in tune
People throwing vegetables and calling him a fraud as they fall out of the room
Dm A F G
He awakes at night with the fear
Dm A F G
That this all might just disappear
Dm A F G
But it scares him just the same
F A
To think that this could all remain
Chorus:
Dm A F
Understanding why we do what we do
G Dm A
Why we put ourselves what we put ourselves through
F G Dm A F
When there's no longer comfort in your comfort zone
F A
You feel like you're all alone
Self-absorption, never ending
Steals the truth, it keeps on bending
Feel like I'm pretending to be something that I'm not
I've got to smooth it like Al Green
Be Funky like JB
Then stand up on my own two feet and learn how to be me
Dm
I'm contradicting myself
Bb
I'm stealing from the past
Dm Bb
I'm trying to slow it down because it feels like it's too fast
Dm
And I'm awaking with the fear
Bb
That this all might disappear
F A
But it scares me just the same to think that this
Could all remain
(Chorus)
Bridge: (Synth Chords)
Dm
Like you're all alone
A
All alone
C E C Dm
All alone
(solo)
Dm A F G Dm A F G Dm A F G Bb A Dm A Dm
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Outro:
Dm A F G Bb A Dm
