MAMMAS, DON'T LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP TO BE COWBOYS CHORDS

[Start]

[Verse]
D                                               G      
 Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold
A                                    D               
 They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold
                                     G     
Lone star belt buckles and old faded Levi's
               G               
And each night begins a new day
A                       A7                        
If you don't understand him and he don't die young
               D             
He'll probably just ride away


[Chorus]
                                 G               
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
A                                                     
 Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
                                   D   
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
                                       G         
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
       A                                               
'cause they'll never stay home and they're always alone
A7                D        
Even with someone they love


[Verse]
E                                           E7       A       
Cowboys like smokey old poolrooms and clear mountain mornings
B                                             E        
Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
                         E             
Them that don't know him won't like him
              A                                      
And them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
B                                 
He ain't wrong he's just different
                                                        E         
But his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right


[Chorus]
                                       A         
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
B                                                   
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
B7                                 E   
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
E                                                
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
A              B                                       
'cause they'll never stay home and they're always alone
B7                         
Even with someone they love
E                                                
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys


[Outro]
                           E                        
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
           A           N.C.            
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
