The Traveling Kind chords by Emmylou Harris

Chords with lyrics

C majorC    A minorAm   G7G7    FF  G7G7 C majorC
We don't all die young to save our spark

     A minorAm  G7G7  FF
From the ravag-es of time

    A minorAm    G7G7   FF   G7G7  C majorC
But the first and last to leave their mark

   FF  C majorC A minorAm    G7G7    C majorC
Some-day be-come the traveling kind


    A minorAm    G7G7    FF G7G7 C majorC
In the wind are names of po-ets past

     A minorAm     G7G7    FF
Some were friends of yours and mine

    A minorAm    G7G7   FF  G7G7 C majorC
And to those un-sung we lift our glass

     FF   C majorC A minorAm    G7G7    C majorC
May their songs be-come the traveling kind

    A minorAm   G7G7     FF G7G7 C majorC
We were born to brave this tilted world

     A minorAm     G7G7   FF
With our hearts laid on the line

   A minorAm     G7G7   FF  G7G7  C majorC
Be it way crossed boy or red dirt girl

  FF  C majorC A minorAm    G7G7    C majorC
The song be-comes the traveling kind


     A minorAm    G7G7     FF   G7G7 C majorC
There are mountains worth their weight in gold

   A minorAm   G7G7    FF
Mere mortals dare not climb

    A minorAm  G7G7   FF  A minorAm  C majorC
Come ye tipsy sainted sin-ners both

  FF   C majorC  A minorAm   G7G7    C majorC
And claim them for the traveling kind


     A minorAm  G7G7   FF   G7G7 C majorC
When the music slowly starts to fade

     A minorAm      G7G7   FF
Into the light's last soft decline

    A minorAm    G7G7   FF    C majorC
Let us lie down in that evening shade

  FF  C majorC A minorAm     G7G7    A minorAm
And rest a mooing the traveling kind


    FF  C majorC  A minorAm     G7G7    C majorC
