Intro until fade

Tablature Explanation:
NT  = Nashville Tuning is when the low E, A, D MajorD & G+G strings are replaced
with
    lighter gauge strings and tuned one octave higher than normal.
|  = bar separating measures
~  = vibrato
x  = percussive note with no pitch; muted note
.  = staccato; mute the note immediately after striking it
h  = hammer
p  = pull
s  = slide (used when \ or / don't fit)
^  = bend string up to indicated pitch/fret shown in 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 augmentedA 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 starts with the Coda sign (+).
RF  = repeat and fade
rit = "ritardando" - Gradually slowing in tempo; retarding.

Tablature Format:

This Tablature is based on the format indicated below.

 1  2  3  4   1  2  3  4   <--Quarter note beat locations
 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8  <--Eighth note beat locations
                   <--Effects/Misc Line
 D MajorD         C majorC   G/BG/B     <--Chord Line
 e e e q  q  e  e e e q  e e e  <--Note Duration Line (table below)
|-----2-----------|-----------------| <--High E MajorE string
|-------3---------|-----------------| <--B string
|---2-------2---0-|-----0-------0---| <--G string
|-0---------------|---2-------0---0-| <--D string
|-----------------|-3-----2---------| <--A string
|-----------------|-----------------| <--E string

Effects/Misc Line: Provides effects information, number of repeats, etc.

Chord Line: Provides the chord name for the chords used in the
       tab below.

Note Duration Line: Provides the "value" of each note, e.g., whole,
           half, quarter, etc.

Note Duration Designator Table:
 w = Whole note          h = Half note
 q = Quarter note         H = Dotted half note
 Q = Dotted Quarter note     s = Sixteenth note
 e = Eighth note         S = Dotted sixteenth note
 E MajorE = Dotted eighth note      + = Duration exceeds 2 measures
 t = Thirty-second note
 T = Dotted thirty-second note

 Notes with two designations immediately adjacent to each other
 have durations added (e.g., he = half note + eigth note, etc.)

String lines: Represent the strings of a guitar. The tab is laid
        out as if you placed a right handed guitar on your
        lap, string side up. A augmentedA vertical line character "|"
        represents a bar between measures. A augmentedA dash "-" represents
        each string. The numbers indicate which fret should
        be fingered to sound the note. The first space after
        every bar is a blank space that is almost never used.
        Quarter notes are separated by 3 dashes, eighth notes
        are separated by 1 dash. In an effort to make the
        ASCII tab look as much like tab in a music book, the
        notes are spaced out as accurately as possible. In the
        event the notes will not fit into the format shown above,
        the tab will be expanded (usually only required for
        solos).
