Spirit of a Boy, or the Wisdom of a Man
by: Randy Travis


G         C               G
He was sixteen tender and tough
        C               G                     D
She was too and he'd do anything to prove his love
     C              D                G
With so much riding on the choice at hand
                C                       G
the spirit of a boy, or the wisdom of a man

              C                 G
Hearts caught fire and love ran wild
              C                 G                      D
She cried the day she called to say she was having his child
     C              D                G
With so much riding on the choice at hand
                C                      D
the spirit of a boy or the wisdom of a man

          C                                  G      
There's a constant contradiction, what feels good and what feels right
     C                            D
But, you live with decisions that you make in your life
    C                             G       D    C  
And what steers your direction is hard to understand
                C                       D
The spirit of a boy, or the wisdom of a man

D                C
Now he drives a diesel out of Dallas
        G
Hauling cars out to the coast
             C                              G               D
It ain't the dream that he remembers just a few short years ago
                  C                           G 
But, tonight at a truckstop, while drinking a cup
    C                  G
The waitress grins and winks at him
         C                 D
And says my shift's almost up

     C              D                G 
With so much riding on the choice at hand
                C                       D
the spirit of a boy, or the wisdom of a man
     C              D                G 
With so much riding on the choice at hand
                C                       G
the spirit of a boy, or the wisdom of a man
