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 thingās got me thinking
On [C]the price of a lif[G]e of travelinā lite.
[G]Trying to live up to the words that some old writer felt
Spend your youth before you die and donāt outlive yourself.[C]
[D]But Lord that gets expensive on troubadours and minstrels
Itās the price of a [C]life of travelinā l[G]ite.
Chorus:
C (3rd fret) C
Itās 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]avelinā [G]lite.
[G]Iād 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 loverās tune underneath your breath
I can almost see your face but [C]I aināt there [G]yet.
[G]I have lost my mind before, lost my heart a few times for sure
[C]Lost my way, but Iāve never lost my keys.[D]
[D]And Iāll tell you this for starters, ships aināt built for harbors
Itās [C]the price of a life[G] of travelinā lite.
Chorus
[G]Iām travelinā [C]lite
[G]Iām travelinā [C]lite
[G]Iām travelin, travelin, travelin [D]lite
[G]Iām travelinā [C]lite, Iām travelin l[G]ite.
