Rush - Lakeside Park

        From the CD 'Caress of Steel'
                Written by Lee/Lifeson/Peart
                Mercury/Polygram Records 822543-2

    Thanks to WaveStudio, I was able to slow the song down and tab the
      solo right. Now it's definitely correct. Thanks to Rich Soto
       for some corrections.

Progression:

[Riff 1] x2

[Riff 1] x4 /w lyrics:

Midway hawkers calling, "Try your luck with me."
Merry-go-round wheezing the same old melody.
A thousand ten-cent wonders, who could ask for more.
A pocketful of silver, the key to heaven's door.

[Riff 2] x2 /w lyrics:

Lakeside Park, willows in the breeze.
Lakeside Park, so many memories.
Laughing rides, midway lights,
shining stars on summer nights.

[Riff 3] x1

[Riff 1] x2

[Riff 1] x4 /w lyrics:

Days of barefoot freedom, racing with the waves.
Nights of starlit secrets, crackling driftwood flames.
Drinking by the lighthouse, smoking on the pier,
Still, we saw the magic was fading every year.

Lakeside Park, willows in the breeze.

[Riff 4] x2

[Riff 4] x2 /w lyrics:

Everyone would gather on the 24th of May,
sitting in the sand to watch the fireworks display.

Dancing fires on the beach, singing songs together;
Though it's just a memory, some mem'ries last forever.
