Travelin Light(Chords)

	        
Intro: D A D 

D 
You've been standin' on the corner for a thousand nights 
                                 A 
It's the slowest corner known to man 

Watchin' strange faces passin' 'neath the lights 
                             D 
With a bottle wavin' in your hand 

You got just enough money for some nothin' to go 
                          A 
It ain't exactly what you planned 

So lonesome that you can't even say hello 
                             D 
And no one seems to understand 

            G                         D 
So you're a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd 
    A                                D 
The ones that only fit where they're not allowed 
G                             D 
Out on the streets and you're feelin' blue..... 
          G 
Travelin' light 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through 

D 
You wandered away from your childhood home 
                                     A 
Nobody cared to trace the tracks you laid 

You traveled by night and you traveled alone 
                          D 
Came to rest at a penny arcade 

Well, the last shots over on a Saturday night 
                             A 
You wake up in the beam of a cop's flashlight 

He asks you who you are as if you knew or cared 
                                   D 
He asks you where you live and you say nowhere 

           G                         D 
So you're a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd 
    A                                D 
The ones that only fit where they're not allowed 
G                             D 
Out on the streets and you're feelin' blue..... 
          G 
Travelin' light 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through 


solo (chords as verse) 

D 
I don't know where I got it, but, I got it the same 
                               A 
It's a feelin' that'll rip you apart 

It follows me around like a part of my name 
                               D 
Like I'm born with a time bomb instead of a heart 

            G                         D 
So you're a mixed up kid, come on and join the crowd 
    A                                D 
The ones that only fit where they're not allowed 
G                             D 
Out on the streets and you're feelin' blue..... 
          G 
Travelin' light 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through 

G             D 
Mixed up kid, join the crowd 
A                       D 
The ones that only fit, not allowed 
G                             D 
Out on the streets and you're feelin' blue..... 
          G 
Travelin' light 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
       D                           G 
With a hole in your soul where the wind blows through 
  D                           G          D 
A hole in your soul where the wind blows through
