(ver. 1)
Cory Morrow

[Intro]
* D * G * A * G * A * D *D *

[Verse]
D                                G
You gave me the world when I was 12 years old,
A                        D
I learned to carry that load
*D                     G
And all I asked in return, Lord,
           A                D
Was not a long and winding road
*D                        G
I took some teasin' when I was young,
               A                           D
You know them kids, they threw sticks and stones.
*D                  G
I had to learn to bite my tongue,
           A                     D  4  D  2  D  4  D  2 D
Cause you said they could never know.

[Chorus]
   A                 Bm        G
- Sometimes I wanna smoke and play,
            D          G       A
You know I wanna stay out all night
     D                 A      Bm
Well I get tempted and I get tired of
 G         D      A         D
Bein' and doin' everything right
       Bm                   G       D
Well, life's not about the way you live,
               G          A
It's what you know to be right
         D                   A           Bm
So just keep on cryin' and learnin' and tryin'
    G        D          A        D
To love one another in spite of spite,
    G        D          A        D
To love one another in spite of spite. -

[Instrumental]
D * G * A * G * A * D *D 

[Verse]
D                           G
We should've told them the truth by now, Lord,
A                     D
They won't believe my ways
*D                         G
I'm just a man, I have my ups and downs,
            A                    D
You know I have my share of bad days
*D                         G
But I ain't friends with Billy Graham
               A                  D
And you can't find me on the telephone
*D                       G
You probably don't recognize me, people,
        A                D  4  D  2  D  4  D  2 D
I ain't on them damn TV shows.

[Chorus]
   A                 Bm        G
- Sometimes I wanna smoke and play,
            D          G       A
You know I wanna stay out all night
     D                 A      Bm
Well I get tempted and I get tired of
 G         D      A         D
Bein' and doin' everything right
       Bm                   G       D
Well, life's not about the way you live,
               G          A
It's what you know to be right
         D                   A           Bm
So just keep on cryin' and learnin' and tryin'
    G        D          A        D
To love one another in spite of spite,
    G        D           G        D
To love one another, to love one another,
       G         D         A        D
Oh to love one another in spite of spite.
