[Verso 1]
 
C                          Am 
 I thought it happened when I took that first sip 
F                   G                        C 
 Out of a tall boy, thought, "Boy, ain't you tough?" 
                             Am 
They couldn't tell me nothin' when I got the keys to somethin' 
F                          G                      F   Am   G 
 That can take seventeen me where that drag strip was 
                            F      Am             G 
But loose gravel don't love trucks, thought I was all grown up, but 
 


[Refrão]
 
C                      Em               F            C 
 I found out fast that life can put you back in your place 
                       Em           F             Am 
Ready or not, man, the real world's right in your face 
                 G/B                           F 
When you're down upsides, too late to hit them brakes 
                     F 
Man near died, but a man was born that day

[Verso 2]
 
C                            Am 
 And that smoky college bong, I saw her on his arm 
F                     G                              F    Am 
 And that seein' red, whiskey said, "Throw the first punch" 
               G 
Next thing you know, I woke up 
F  Am                G 
     Thought I could take anyone, but

                       Em           F             Am 
Ready or not, man, the real world's right in your face 
                     G/B                     F 
Found out real quick why sometimes you walk away 
                          G 
Swallow your pride, but a man was born that day

[Ponte]
 
         Am 
Yeah, we had a plan now 
G                       Fmaj7 
Names written down in a room half wrote in blue paint 
               G 
Oh, but in the kitchen that day

                        G/B                        F 
Tears wellin' up in her eyes, that'll make a heart break 
                     F 
No pink lines, but a man was born that day
