Rush: Afterimage From the album Grace Under Pressure (Mercury Records) Copyright 1984 Core Music Publishing Music by Lee and Lifeson Lyrics by Peart Transcribed by: Richard J. Soto Email: lerxst@zeus.jersey.net Previously tabbed by Jimmy Pena and by Hemme B. Luttjeboer This tab is out of order because I've gotten lazy in my old age and made this tab mainly for the accuracy of the solo although a few other things are different than previously tabbed versions because of the video. This tab took FULL advantage of the song's video which was released in 1985 on Rush's first commercially released home VHS/BETA music video- /promo compilation, Rush: Through The Camera Eye. -0---0-------------------------------0---------------------------------------- -1---1---------------------------0---0---------------------------------------- -2---2---------------------------0---0---------------------------------------- -2---2---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---2---------------------------------------- -0---0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2---2---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-------------- ---------------------------------0---0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------- -----3---------------------------1---1--------------------------|------------- -3---3---------------------------1---1--------------------------|------------- -0---0---------------------------2---2--------------------------|------------- -0---0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-3---3--------------------------|------------- -2---2---2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-3---3---3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3|------------- -3---3---3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1---1---1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1|------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------5---|-------------------5---|------------------------------ -------------------5---|-------------------5---|------------------------------ -------------------6---|-------------------6---|------------------------------ -------------------7---|-------------------7---|------------------------------ -------------------7---|-------------------7---|------------------------------ -3--5-----3--3-/5--5---|-3--5-----3--3-/5--5---|------------------------------ . . . . ----5--------------3---------|------------------------------------------------ ----6--------------5-vvvvvvv-|------------------------------------------------ ----7--------------5-vvvvvvv-|------------------------------------------------ ----7--------------5-vvvvvvv-|------------------------------------------------ ----5--------------3-vvvvvvv-|------------------------------------------------ ----5--------------3-vvvvvvv-|------------------------------------------------ .
