[Verse 1]
Am
I'm traveling light, it's au revoir
Am
My once so bright, my fallen star
             Dm
I'm running late, they'll close the bar
           Dm             E7
I used to play one mean guitar
             Am
I guess I'm just somebody who
          Am
Has given up on the me and you
         Dm
I'm not alone, I've met a few
           Dm             E7
Traveling light, like we used to do

[Verse 2]
 Am
Good night, good night, my fallen star
                Am
I guess you're right, you always are
               Dm
I know you're right about the blues
               Dm                E7
You live some life you'd never choose
            Am
I'm just a fool, a dreamer who
           Am
Forgot to dream of the me and you
         Dm
I'm not alone, I've met a few
           Dm                 E7
Traveling light, like we used to do

[Verse 1 - Reprised]
Am
I'm traveling light, it's au revoir
Am
My once so bright, my fallen star
             Dm
I'm running late, they'll close the bar
           Dm             E7
I used to play one mean guitar
             Am

[Outro]
            Am
But if the road leads back to you
         Am
Must I forget the things I knew
             Dm
When I was friends with one or two
           Dm                    E7
Traveling light, like we used to do
               Am
I'm traveling light
