NOTES:
Some parts of the song include backups with acoustic guitars (probably six or twelve
strings). I didn't notate this since its pretty much the same thing.

Well, that's the most complete version I can do for now.
I'll try and figure out the solo later. This is how I play
it and I transcribed this myself. I think you'll agree that
it's the most complete, accurate transcription of 2112:Overture
around (like there are a lot of 'em :) and hey, it's free!
Questions, comments, requests for other tab-Rush and pretty
much anything else- are welcome. Enjoy!
