Spirit Of A Boy Chords & Lyrics - Randy Travis

[VERSE]
H[D]e was sixte[G]en tender and to[D]ugh
She was [G]too and he'd do [D]anything to prove his [A]love
With [G]so much riding [A]on the choice at [Bm]hand
the spirit of a [G]boy,[A] or the wisdom of a ma[D]n
Hearts caught [G]fire and love ran [D]wild
She cried the [G]day she called to [D]say she was having his [A]child
With [G]so much riding [A]on the choice at [Bm]hand
the spirit of a [G]boy,[A] or the wisdom of a man

[VERSE]
There's a [A]constant contradiction, what feels [G]good and what
feels [D]right
But, [G]you live with dec[D]isions that [A]you make in your life
And [A]what steers your direction i[Bm]s hard [A]to un[G]derstand
The spirit of a [G]boy,[A] or the wisdom of a ma[D]n
[A]Now he drives a d[G]iesel out of Dallas
Hauling c[D]ars out to the coast
It ain't the d[G]ream that he remembers just a f[D]ew short
years a[A]go
But, tonight at a [G]truckstop, while drinking a [D]cup
The [G]waitress grins and [D]winks at him
And says [G]my shift's almost [A]up

[OUTRO]
with [G]so much riding [A]on the choice at [Bm]hand
the spirit of a [G]boy,[A] or the wisdom of a m[A]an
With [G]so much riding [A]on the choice at [Bm]hand
the spirit of a [G]boy,[A] or the wisdom of a m[D]an
