Tuning: D A D G B E
This is the intro and then the rest that I could figure out. Because the intro is used so often throughout, I hope this can help people learn the song. It's meant for acoustic guitar, and is based on various live performances, mostly this performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuPQyEenPQI Maybe someone can help finish it via the comments and I will submit a full tab for the whole song. Thursday - Turnpike Divides Tuning: DADGBe Tabbed by: Cole Heideman [Intro] e|---------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------| D|--4---4-4---4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-0-0-0------| (X4) A|--2---2-2---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------| D|------------0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2/5-5-5------| [Verse 1] (power chords) B5 D5 (X4) E5 D5 (x2) F#5
"There'B5s a thousand black cars all drivD5ing round in my blood stream gotta tB5ake a thousand pills toD5 find out where their headlights lead. IsB5 it cold New York? ID5s it freezing in your bed?

Don't wanna be a self medicator, but its hard to sleep when you're born to run I'm sick of living life in the Garden State Trap But all the roads are pointing home again. [Verse 2]:
HB5oly Cross has got a headstone alD5l picked out for me AB5nd my only job is to walk aroundD5 until I fall down at it's feet. MB5aybe home is just the place you D5can never escape: B5From the Camden City graves to tD5he edge of the Palisades IE5t's alright, coD5unting city lights, WE5here the TurnpiD5ke divides,
Waving goodbye to my former life.

This next part and the part after I don't know how to play yet: And I'll be counting the city lights Blinking on and off tonight as life passes by And I'm left behind, standing on the shoulder of the Jersey Turnpike. Buildings seem to rise like coffins full of stars getting buried in the sky. You want to laugh and dance... to be free? Well, alright-- [Build up part] something like this: e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-| D|--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-| A|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-| D|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-| This part I don't have figured out yet: [Outro refrain]: I've been thinking about those days I wanted to sleep And you'd wake me up just before you'd leave And I'd fall back into a dream: Walking in fresh city snow that you'd never seen And I'd never leave your side. END So with that you can play most of the song! If anyone can figure out other parts feel free to comment, I'll keep working on it as well! Enjoy!
