  Rush: I Think I'm Going Bald
  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  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] 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.
