Rush: Force Ten From the album Hold Your Fire (Mercury Records) Copyright 1987 Core Music Publishing Music by Lee and Lifeson Lyrics by Peart and Dubois Howdy, I just tabbed Force Ten. Well, I wrote down the chords. I didn't tab the fills or the solo, I'm just too tired. Anyone who wants to do so, feel free to take the credit for the whole thing. I found Mario's tab at syrinx, so no need for anyone to send it to me. :) Jimmy Pena - jimmy@walrus.com Rush - Force Ten The chords all appear to be powerchords.

A F# E Be vain and smart, humble and dumb; we can hit and miss like pride. D Just like pride. F# Eb C# We can circle around like hurricanes; dance and dream like lovers. F# Eb C# Attack the day like birds of prey - or scavengers under cover. B Under the covers. Right here there's a bit A A A C~ w/ delay or just picked very fast: G e:--------------------- Look in - to the eye of the storm B:--3-3----3----------- G G:-------4---4--------- Look out - for the force without form D:--------------------- F G A:--------------------- Look around - at the sight and sound E:--------------------- A G Look in look out look around Over the F it's this: e:------------------- B:--1-1---1---------- G:------2---2-------- D:------------------- A:------------------- E:------------------- Repeat [Riff 1] as necessary The words are different but the chords are the same: A-F#-E (D) F#-Eb-C# (B) Then later: The out of sync bit at 3:17 A a bunch of times F a bunch of times G a bunch of times This repeats while Geddy is singing; it's just A-F-G w/ slight variation and back to [Riff 1]
