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
