Time Stand Still - Rush (from Hold Your Fire) Transcription by Dan Newcombe (STDN@vm.marist.edu) (I know that this is not 100% accurate, but it is closer than nothing. If you have corrections, please post them in a nice civilized manner. No flames, they're a waste.) To find out the chord rythyms, listen to the album.

(The rest of the song is taken from the parts that come
after the slow part of the chorus. They are easy to figure
out, mostly E A and B chords, and I am too tired to
type them in)
I got the TAB for "Time Stand Still" off the ftp site and noticed that
the intro was heinously incorrect. I realize the person who wrote it
said it wasn't 100% correct, and I am posting the correction in a
civilized manner :) I'll post more Rush TAB if there are enough people
interested. There's a pretty good-size collection going at the site,
and most of it's correct that I've seen, and I want to add to it as
much as I can. Alex Lifeson is my favorite guitarist, and I know how to
play most of Rush's tunes.
