Schlagmuster: d-d-du-d-d

[Verse 1]
D                                                G
Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold
A7                                             D
They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold
D
Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levis and
G
each night begins a new day
       A7
If you don't understand him and he don't die young
                          D
he'll probably just ride away


[Chorus]
D                                          G
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys
      A7
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
                                   D
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
D                                          G
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys
           A7
Cause they never stay home and they're always alone
                       D
even with someone they love


[Verse 2]
E                                                    A
Cowboys like smoky old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
B7                                                E
Little warm puppies and children and girls of the 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
         B7
He ain't wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him
                                 E
do things to make you think he's right


[Chorus]
E                                          A
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys
      B7
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
                                   E
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
E                                          A
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys
           B7
Cause they never stay home and they're always alone
                       E
even with someone they love

E                                          A
Mammas don't let your Babies grow up to be Cowboys
      B7
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
