I Think I'm Going Bald  Rush

From the album Caress of Steel (Mercury Records)
Copyright 1975 Core Music Publishing
Music by Lee and Lifeson
Lyrics by Peart
This is a great song in the key of A. The solos I tabbed are a bit
simplified, but they should give you an idea of what's going on.
Special thanks to Ross Stites <rstites@ee.umn.edu> for giving me a big
head start on tabbing this one out. Rock on!
I changed Riff 2 to powerchords, also check Riff 1 and see if it's
right. I changed a little bit of it.

[Riff 1] x4
[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:
I looked in the mirror today; my eyes just didn't seem so bright.
[Riff 2] x1 /w lyrics:
I've lost a few more hairs. I think I'm, I'm going bald.
[Riff 1] x4 /w lyrics:
I think I'm going bald.
Seems like only yesterday we would sit and talk of dreams all night.
[Riff 2] x1 /w lyrics:
Dreams of youth, and simple truths. Now we're all so involved,
[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:
so involved with life.
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
I walk down vanity fair, memory lane everywhere.
Wall Street shuffles there, dressed in flowing hair.

[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:
Once we loved the flowers, now we ask the price of the land.
[Riff 2] x2 /w lyrics:
Once we would take water, but now it must be wine.
Now we've been and now we've seen, what price peace of mind?
[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:
Take a piece of my mind!
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
My life is slipping away. I'm aging every day.
But even when I am grey, I'll still be grey my way.
