Chords for ♫ "The Traveler" ❖ Don Francisco ♫

[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
The day dawned in confusion like [A] a nightmare with no end
Tired and dreary colors ragged [C] hopes [G] it wouldn't mend _
_ The grief and fear of death just [A] seemed to hang across the sky [D] and the pain just kept on burning
[G] Though the tears had all been cried
_ _ _ _ _ We were talking as we journeyed [A] toward a quiet country town
[D] When another traveler asked us [C] why we seemed so [G] sad and down
It was like a dam that burst [A] inside as I spoke my grief and woe
[C]
Amazed that [Am] someone leaving [D] there and somehow still [G] not know _
_ _ _ _ [Em] But the traveler called us foolish [A] men and dull and slow of heart
[F] And he showed us from the scriptures [D] God had planned it from the start
[Em] But it wasn't till the evening [Am] that our eyes were opened there and we knew that it was Jesus
[D] But he vanished in [G] the air _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] We rushed back to Jerusalem [A] to tell the others there
[F] They said he has seen him too.
There [D] was excitement everywhere
[Em] Nearly shouting to each other [Am] as the realization grew
[C] When all at once [Am] he spoke to us
[C] _
_ _ [D] Peace be unto you _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] We started back in terror
[A] For his radiance filled the place
[F] The light was all around [D] him and was shining from his face.
He [Em] smiled a smile of love
[Am] Left no cause for doubt
_ _ And then because [C] he knew our hearts [Dm] he spoke our [G] feelings out _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Why are you so troubled?
[A] Why are you in fear [D] see my hands and see my feet I [G] myself here
_ _ _ Reach out now and handle me [A] until you've all been shown
My life is [D] more than spirit or I'm [G] here in flesh and bone _ _ _
_ _ [Em] Some lifted hands toward heaven [A] and then knelt without a sound
[F] Some just stood and stared at him as [D] if rooted to the ground
[Em] But I could not contain the joy the [Am] blood and heart and soul
_ _ _ He [C] came rushing out in [Am] praises I [D] had no
