Rush: Half the World From the album Test for Echo (Atlantic Records) Copyright 1996 Core Music Publishing Music by Lee and Lifeson Lyrics by Peart Transcribed by Jarred Sanchez Here are the tabs for Half the world by Rush. Some parts were rather difficult to transcribe since there is so much overdubbing. However I came up with something that fits, and It sounds right.
