Tuasca > >Note: You'll need a CAPO on 3rd fret to play the accoustic parts of the >song. The CAPO is not used by Martin Barre, BUT if you want to play this >song alone (I guess some of you will!), you can easyly figure out that >this is possible, even in the solo (remember to play the first few notes >on the B string, then). > >I tryed to contact the previous persons who made efforts and contributions >to this song, but got an error from their mail servers... Let me know what >you thing you guys!!! > >Intro: > >Some of these notes are power chords, but I'll leave this up to you :) >

parenthesis () >r = release bend (string/fret may be indicated) >t = fret board tap (not many of these with Rush) >/ = slide up >\ = slide down >x/ = pick slide up >x\ = pick slide down > = natural harmonic (lightly touch the string at fret indicated) >[5] = artificial harmonic (use thumb to follow through the pick attack) >(5) = note sustained from previous measure >o =\ repeat sign >o =/ >DC = "Da capo" - means "from the head", when you see these initials > you go back to the beginning of the piece of music. >DS = "Dal segno" - means "from the sign", go back in the tabulature > only as far as the (%) sign. >Coda = A passage at the end of a movement or composition that brings > it to a formal close. >Al >Coda = means "to the tail", tells you that you must go to the end > section which
