4. By-Tor & The Snow Dog

Subject: TAB: 'By-Tor and The Snow Dog' by Rush

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

h = hammer on
p = pull off

[At the Tobes of Hades:]

      G        D      A     D          D      A       D  A
The tobes of Hades lit by flickering torch light.

The nether world is gathered in the glare.

Prince By-Tor takes the cavern to the north light.

     devil's prince.


[Across the Styx:]

Across the River Styx, out of the lamp light.

 F        G    D
Let the fray begin.

----

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


  1:11                   1:17                  1:23
   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:

        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.
