Rush - By-Tor & The Snow Dog

        From the CD 'Fly By Night'
                Written by Lee/Lifeson/Peart
                Mercury/Polygram Records 822542-2

        This tab is not 100% correct. Feel free to fix it. Standard
tuning [EADGBe] (low to high). The key signature is D, but it appears to
change to E in the middle, then back to D at the Epilogue. Yes the tab
has gotten messier but I think it's also gotten more accurate.

Jimmy Pena - jimmy@walrus.com

| = not a standard bar line; just used to separate music
~ = vibrato or held note
x = percussive note with no pitch; muted 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

        Here is part of the middle section. I put the time down so you
can figure out where I am.

   E~   A B B G~   D E E  E~   A B B G~  D E E  A~

[Guitar and effects for about 1:00]

Then there are a few E and D chords:

  2:55  2:58  3:01  3:04

D:o---9---------9---------9---------------9-7-6~~---o|
A:---------------------------------------------------|
E:---------------------------------------------------|

        There is another part in here but I just can't figure it out. It
sounds like the previous pattern but played higher up and with some
hammer-ons and pull-offs.
