Rush: Closer to the Heart
From the album A Show of Hands (Mercury Records)
Copyright 1989 Core Music Publishing
Music by Lee and Lifeson
Lyrics by Peart and Talbot

Here are some takes on the _A Show of Hands_ rendition of "Closer to the
Heart".

From: Mario D'Alessio 

On "A Show of Hands", after playing "Closer to the Heart",
Rush gets a little playful and just jam a bit. I'd like to
know what Geddy is playing. I think part of it is something
like this (I'm typing this up at work, without my bass):

+-----------------------------------+
|*---------------------------------*|
|*-3-3-3-3--------------------1-2--*|
+----------3-3-3-3-1----1-1-3-------+

After repeating this a few times, Ged plays this fast, cool
little solo part. How is this part played?

I hope I made myself clear. Thanks.

Mario

Yikes.  Can't help there.  :(  I'll try to sit down with it for
a while and see if I can come up with something.
