Silhouettes of grey. Another glass of wine. Drink with eyes that shine. G D To days without that chill at morning. Long nights, time out of mind.

Again, this Rush song is the culmination of many hours of work. It is not 100% complete, but every effort has been made to include as much as possible. Part V "Bacchus Plateau" does not have the complete solo. Part VI "The Fountain" does not have the complete solo either. I was not able to work them out in their entirety, but all my work is present. This work is entirely original in that I did not take anything from any previously existing parts which are available online in order to create the tab. Speaking of which, 'No One At The Bridge' was previously tabbed by Paul Bryant . 'Panacea' was previously tabbed by Vidar Bergh . 'Didacts and Narpets' is care of Branden Robinson . Jimmy Pena - jimmy@walrus.com | = not a standard bar line; just used to separate music ~ = vibrato or held note h = hammer on p = pull off s = slide b = bend string up to indicated pitch/fret r = release bend to indicated string/fret / = slide up from infinity \ = slide down into infinity o \_ o / repeat sign (always look for these!) [x35553] = fret box; this is a C chord - this is the same as standard tablature, only turned on its side. Tilt your head clockwise to read.
