Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys

• D

   
   D                                                    G 
1. Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to     hold. 
2. Cowboys like smoky old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings 
 
   A7                                                D 
1. They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or    gold. 
2. little warm puppies and children and girls of the night. 
 
   D 
1. Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levis and             
2. Them that don't know him won't like them and them that do  
 
   G 
1. each night begins a new day 
2. sometimes won't know how to take him. 
 
            A7 
1. If you   don't understand him and he don't die young  
2. He ain't wrong he's just different but his pride won't let him  
 
1. he probably just rides away. 
2. do things to make you think he's right. 
 
D                                             G 
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys 
 
      A7                            
don't let'em pick guitars and drive'em old trucks 
 
                                  D 
let'em be doctors and lawyers and such. 
 
                                           G 
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys 
 
             A7 
cause the'll never stay home and they're always alone 
 
                       D 
even with someone they love.
