# Cygnus X-1 As recorded by =========== ============== (In lotsa keys...) Rush From the Album _A Farewell to Kings_ Music by Lee & Lifeson Lyrics by Peart Transcribed by Mr. White (mrwhite@lanminds.com) ***Note: I'm not sure if all this is 100% accurate. It will sound like the song because the chords are right and stuff--some of it is just my improvisation though. However, most of it is basically what Geddy plays. This is a damn tough song! I think a lot of bits of it are free-time, but I've tried to quantize everything into bars to make it a *little* bit easier to play. (Strangely enough, the beginning figure, where only Geddy is playing *is* in several set meters. He uses a rest of 6/4 between the first two bass bits and then 5/4, then 4/4, etc. Pretty cool!) In addition, some of the notes may not be absolutely solid--I don't know if it's the weirdness of the recording or just my ear that's messing me about. Enjoy: Tab notes: =========================================================================================== R = Rest / = slide up . = dotted note /^3^\ = Triplet (or other) grouping \ = slide down * = repeats x = Muted note + = tie * ==#== = Extended Rest (#=no. of bars) ____________ 1. | = different endings =========================================================================================== Sound effects and spoken vocal for a little while. Bass enters at about 1:25 (fade in over the first 23 bars) *Bass only* q q s s e w. q q s s e w+q q q s s e w q q s s e
