Transcontinental This is a hybrid tab concocted from a few live versions (so if you want to play along with the album, drop down a whole step). There's a few variations in the way he plays this. As a duo or band there's more power/muted chords. When he's solo, the chords are more open. This frankenstein tab is bits of both. Lots of chord changes, so rate this as intermediate. D/B = 7x077x D/A = x0077x or 5x077x G = 3x003x on the chorus. On the verse go barred like a brute cake. A/7sus4 = x02030 Bbdim = x1232x G/F# = 255xxx D         Bm         F#m               G             A# Engine severs lower legs, I feel my bruised heart beating – D       Bm               F#m                  G     A#         Spinal cord  remains in tact, still sending and receiving – D/B      D/A              G                     D Laying back on shoulder blades, cargo rushing past D/B      D/A               G                     A/7sus4 Missing limbs beneath the cars, twitching on the tracks D/F#   G         E   A    Bbdim       D/B      G                 Click clack, now handicapped, north am transcontinental – D        Bm          F#m   G – A – A# – C D     Bm      A – Asus7 – A G          A#     I remember as I bleed, certain tales of bravery – D Bm F#m G A# A man who's legs were crushed beneath, a fallen evergreen tree D/B      D/A             G            D He decided he would chop them off above the knee D/B         D/A       G                A7sus4 To sacrifice his shins and feet, to make his torso free Em       Bm          G             F#m    F The luxury of having been spared the hard part – Em Bm G A – Asus7 – A You'd think would be enough for me to pull this off D/F#  G        E    A     Bdim But I'm left to bleed to death – Now D/B   D/A     G   G/F#         all the man I've ever been – Em A A# – C – D North am transcontinental. by Quoc
