Geddy Lee makes use of a simple power chord in creating a wicked chordal groove. In this lesson we’ll look at how to play the intro and how that chord works and you’ll get to check out my brand new look!

Turn The Page

This bass line is from the into of Turn The Page from Rush’s Hold Your Fire album and features a cool riff that uses bass chords in a slightly different context. It’s roughly 160bpm in the key of B Major and is a really fun riff to play.

Putting It All Together

So, now you know the chords we will be using, we just have to put it together and get the rhythmic pattern down. The first part of the intro is as below.

Then, once we have played the first riff through four times, we move the whole pattern down to the 11th fret position of Ab as shown on the TAB and stave below.
