Travel Light

Johnny Flynn

Transposer:

I found another tab on this site but i prefer playing the song like this: standart tuning no capo chords: G 320000 Cadd9 x32030 Intro: Cadd9 2x the chords are playing the whole song like this: When I was an astronaut I didn’t take my boots When I was a coal miner I didn’t know the news When I was a record store I didn’t have the blues I travel light and that’s the life for me. He doesn’t care where else he goes He’s not gonna take any extra clothes or extra shoes to hide his feet The ground is dirt the dirt is sweet When I go Londontown I’ll stand under a rock Until I know all the time it takes to pack a clock Then I’ll flip it over close the key and swallow the lock. I travel light and that’s the life for me. He doesn’t take his spoon or fork He’s seen too many eating in New York He’ll use his hands to pick and eat The fruit he finds he’ll find it sweet When I was a waitress I gave away my tips When I was a call-girl I gave away my hips When I ran the kissing booth I gave away my lips I travel light and that’s the life for me She lives a life like abandoned wind Elemental wife fortune is her friend I smile on a planet and a river made of light she’s just a pebble on a waterfall tonight When i go to Boston I stand around in jeans And save the cash for Levi’s by selling black-market baked beans Denim’s what I like to wear it has durable seams I travel light and that’s the life for me She just a genius without a thinking cap She never pays the rent she’s funny like that I don’t know what she’s on she’s here and gone Rides a welcome mat on a jungle cat Fur’s and silver chairs and shiny things are just a fuss We’ll eat all peanuts that we steal from the circus We’ll count the all stars and go to sleep under the bus We’ll travel light and that’s the life for us We’ll travel light and that’s the life for us We’ll travel light and that’s the life for us

La chanson évoque un mode de vie minimaliste et une quête de liberté. Elle met en avant un personnage qui choisit de voyager léger, en abandonnant les possessions matérielles superflues et en se concentrant sur l'essentiel. Ce style de vie permet de profiter des expériences sans être encombré par des objets inutiles. Les paroles parlent aussi de diverses professions et de la manière dont chaque rôle a contribué à façonner cette approche décontractée et libre de l'existence. Dans le fond, il s'agit d'une célébration de simplicité et de contenuement, où l’on valorise les relations et les moments vécus plutôt que les biens matériels. C'est comme un appel à embrasser l'aventure de la vie sans se soucier des fardeaux habituels que l'on s'impose souvent.
