    My Rush Playlist! • Rush
    In this Closer To The Heart guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play this great song from Rush note-for-note.
    The tuning is standard tuning E A D G B E.
    Alex Lifeson used a 12-string acoustic for the intro section, opening verse and chorus sections. I will be using a 12-string as well, but if you don't have one of those, a 6-string acoustic will do just fine.
    After the electric guitar comes in with the verse and chorus, you will find that they are just simplified versions of the verse and chorus from the acoustic section.
    I will also tackle Alex's solo note-for-note. It is a harmony solo, so I will be covering the high harmony part, which is what Alex would play live.
    I hope you guys enjoy learning this great Rush classic!
    Carl
