Randy Travis - Spirit of a boy wisdom of a man

He was s^Gadd9ixteen, tender and^Dsus2 tough She was^Gadd9 too, and he'd do anything to p^A7rove his love With ^Gso much ^D/F#riding ^Emon the ch^A7oice at h^Bmand The ^D/Aspirit of a b^Goy or the w^A7isdom of a^Dsus2 man

Hearts caught^Gadd9 fire and love ran ^Dsus2wild She cried the^Gadd9 day she called to say she was having his ^A7child With ^Gso much ^D/F#riding ^Emon the ch^A7oice at h^Bmand The^D/A spirit of a ^Gboy or the wisdom of a ^Aman

There's a ^A/C#constant contradi^Action, what feels g^Good and what feels ^Dright But you ^Glive with decisions that you^D make in your l^Aife And what ^A/C#steers your direct^Aion is h^Emard to unders^Bmtand The ^D/Aspirit of a ^Gboy or the wisdom of a m^Aan

Now he drives a d^Gadd9iesel out of Dallas, hauling ^Dsus2cars out to the coast It ain't the d^Gadd9ream that he remembered, just a f^Aew short year^A7sus4s ago ^A7 But tonight at a ^Gtruck stop, while drinking a ^Dsus2cup The w^Gaitress grins and winks at him and says,^A7sus4 "My shift's almost ^A7up"

With ^Gso much ^D/F#riding ^Emon the choice at h^Bmand The ^Dspirit of a ^Gboy or the w^Aisdom of a ^Dman With ^Gso much ^D/F#riding ^Emon the choice at h^Bmand The spirit of a ^Gboy or the wisdom of a m^Dan
