mamas dont let your babies Waylon Jennings
[D]Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to [G]hold
[A]They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or [D]gold
Lonestar belt buckles and old faded Levi's and [G]each night begins a new day
If you [A]don't understand him and he don't die young
He'll probably just ride [D]away
Chorus:
[D]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be [G]cowboys
Don't [A]let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Make them be doctors and lawyers and [D]such
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be [G]cowboys
They'll [A]never stay home and they're always alone
Even with someone they [D]love (Note: Chord Change)
[E]Cowboys like smokey ol' pool rooms and clear mountain [A]mornings
[B7]Little warm puppies and children and girls of the [E]night
[E]Them that don't know him won't like him
And them that do [A]sometimes won't know how to take him
He ain't [B7]wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him
Do the things that make you think he's [E]right
Chorus bis:
[E]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be [A]cowboys
Don't [B7]let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Make them be doctors and lawyers and [E]such
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be [A]cowboys
They'll [B7]never stay home and they're always alone
Even with someone they [E]love
