[D#/Ebm]The dancer slows her frantic pace

In pain and desperation,

[F#/Gb]Her aching limbs and downcast face

[B]Aglow with perspiration

[D#/Ebm]Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire,

With just the briefest pause

[F#/Gb]The flooding through her memory,

[B]The echoes of old applause.[C#/Db]

She limps across the floor

[F#/Gb]And closes her bedroom [D#/Eb]door...

[D#/Ebm] [D#/Ebm] [F#/Gb] [B]

(This pattern follows through out the verse)

[D#/Ebm]The writer stares with glassy eyes

Defies the empty page

[F#/Gb]His beard is white, his face is lined

[B]And streaked with tears of rage.

[D#/Ebm]Thirty years ago, how the words would flow

With passion and precision,

[F#/Gb]But now his mind is dark and dulled

[B]By sickness and indecision[C#/Db]

And he stares out the kitchen door

Where the [F#/Gb]sun will rise no more...[D#/Eb]

[D#/Eb] [C#/Db] [G#/Ab]

[D#/Eb]Some are born to [C#/Db]move the world

To [G#/Ab]live their fantasies

[D#/Eb]But most of us just [C#/Db]dream about

The [G#/Ab]things we'd like to be

[Em]Sadder still to [D]watch it die

Than [C]never to have [G]known it

[B]For you, the blind who [C#/Db]once could see

[B]The bell [C#/Db]tolls for [B]thee...[C#/Db]

[B]The bell [C#/Db]tolls for..[D#/Eb]

This is one of my favourite all time Rush song. Since I didn't find a full tab or chord
for this song I thought it was time for someone to do it.
It was a pleasure figuring out the tab and chords for this incredible song and I'll hope
enjoy it as much as I do!
