Jay Farrar – California Zephyr chords

Official Website: http://www.onefastmove.com/

Gibbard plays the song as I've transcribed here- in G with no capo.  Farrar plays it in 
with the capo on the 5th fret.  To play the Farrar part just pop the capo on the 5th 
and transpose the chords to D.  Fun for you and a friend!

Intro: Open strumming in G

GUp the Hudson Valley across NY State
     CTo Chicago then the plains
         DAll so easy and dream like
                  C               GCrashing the salt flat day break
I hear "I'll take you home again Kathleen"
         CSaid in fogwinds out there that blow
               DAcross the rooftops of eerie old hangover
                GSan Francisco

Chorus 2X
                           DNow I'm transcontinental
                Am3000 miles from my home
                            CI'm on the California Zephyr
                         GWatching America roll by

                   GI've hit the end of the trail
                                                CCan't even drag my body I've been driven mad
For three years
DToo much fame keeps a body busy
         C                             GAnd a mind full of white port tears
Terrified by that sad song
                                CAcross rooftops mingled with the lachrymose cries
         DOf the Salvation Army meeting on the corner
                                          GSaying Satan is the cause of it all

Chorus 2X
                           DNow I'm transcontinental
                Am3000 miles from my home
                            CI'm on the California Zephyr
                         GWatching America roll by
Terrified by that sad song
                                CAcross rooftops mingled with the lachrymose cries
         DOf the Salvation Army meeting on the corner
                                          GSaying Satan is the cause of it all

Chorus 2X
                           DNow I'm transcontinental
                Am3000 miles from my home
                            CI'm on the California Zephyr
                         GWatching America roll by
