Losing It – Rush
Nghệ sĩ: Rush
Hợp Âm Chuẩn
This version is rearranged a bit from the original so it can be played on a single acoustic guitar.
It's in standard tuning instead of a half-step down, and makes use of more open chords.
I'd always been meaning to do an acoustic version of this song, and I finally got around to it
when Neil Peart died.
Chords:
Dsus2: xx0230 D#sus2: x64466 C#sus2: x46644
Bsus2: x24422 Bbsus2: x13311 Csus2: 35533

Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch
The dancer slows her frantic pace, in pain and desperation,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
Her aching limbs and downcast face aglow with perspiration
ch]Dm[/ch
Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire, with just the briefest pause
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
The flooding through her memory, The echoes of old applause.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Dsus2[/ch
She limps across the floor and closes her bedroom door...

Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch
The writer stares with glassy eyes, defies the empty page
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
His beard is white, his face is lined and streaked with tears of rage.
ch]Dm[/ch
Thirty years ago, how the words would flow, with passion and precision,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But now his mind is dark and dulled by sickness and indecision
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Dsus2[/ch
And he stares out the kitchen door, where the sun will rise no more...
Play this once to transition into the bridge

Some are born to move the world, to live their fantasies
ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
But most of us just dream about the things we'd like to be
ch]D#sus2[/ch] [ch]C#sus2[/ch] [ch]Bsus2[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch
Sadder still to watch it die than never to have known it
ch]Bbsus2[/ch] [ch]Csus2[/ch
For you, the blind who once could see
ch]Bbsus2[/ch] [ch]Csus2[/ch] [ch]Bbsus2[/ch] [ch]Csus2[/ch
The bell tolls for thee...
ch]Bbsus2[/ch] [ch]Csus2[/ch] [ch]Dsus2[/ch] [ch]Dsus2[/ch
The bell tolls for..
