To play along with the CD, capo at the 2nd fret
Intro: C-slid up to 3rd fret C (play this twice) then C G
[G]A glaring sun at midday makes it hard to see the road
[C]A lot of miles since last night and a whole lot more to go.
[D]The brightness has me blinking, the whole thing�s got me thinking
On [C]the price of a lif[G]e of travelin� lite.
[G]Trying to live up to the words that some old writer felt
Spend your youth before you die and don�t outlive yourself.[C]
[D]But Lord that gets expensive on troubadours and minstrels
It�s the price of a [C]life of travelin� l[G]ite.
Chorus:
C (3rd fret) C
It�s the price of a life, I guess
C (3rd fret) C
The price of a life, I guess
[C]The price of a [D]life, of tr[C]avelin� [G]lite.
[G]I�d like to lay down girl, gently in your lap
Let you stroke my hair as I take a nap.[C]
[D]You could hum a lover�s tune underneath your breath
I can almost see your face but [C]I ain�t there [G]yet.
[G]I have lost my mind before, lost my heart a few times for sure
[C]Lost my way, but I�ve never lost my keys.[D]
[D]And I�ll tell you this for starters, ships ain�t built for harbors
It�s [C]the price of a life[G] of travelin� lite.
Chorus
[G]I�m travelin� [C]lite
[G]I�m travelin� [C]lite
[G]I�m travelin, travelin, travelin [D]lite
[G]I�m travelin� [C]lite, I�m travelin l[G]ite.
