# X-Envelope-To: jamesb@animal-farm.nevada.edu X-Vms-To: IN%"jamesb@animal-farm.nevada.edu" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT MARATHON from 'Power Windows' transcribed by dlinklater@ewu.edu [Derek Linklater] Note: I did not transcribe the solo for Marathon, I'll leave that to you die-hard rush fans. Please feel free to mail any comments to me regarding this transcription... especially if one of you enterprising Lifeson fans wants to transcribe the solo correctly. :) The 'Alex Lifeson' Sound: I have managed to re-create (sort of) the sound that Alex uses on Marathon. Use a ballsey heavy distortion, chorus (using a triangle wave-form if you can), and either a bit of delay or reverb to get that 'studio' sound. Lyrics not reprinted with permission... sorry guys. :( Intro Riff: B A B A ------------------------5vvv-|---------------------5vvv---2-----2----| ---------------5vvv---4------|------------5vvv----4-------4--2--4--2-| ------4vvv-------------------|---4vvv---------------------4--2--4--2-| ---4---------2------2--------|--4--------2-------2--------4--2--4--2-| -2---------0-----------------|-2--------0-----------------2--0--2--0-| -----------------------------|----------------------------2-----2----| Verse: B A ------2----------------------------------------------------| ------4----------------------------2-----------------------| ------4----------------------------2-----------------------| ------4----------------------------2-----------------------| ------2----------------------------0-----------------------| ------2----------------------------------------------------| It's not how fast you can go, the force goes into the flow.
