Momma Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys Tab par Willie Nelson And Waylon Jennings

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
                                               G
Lonestar belt buckles and old faded Levi's and 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
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
      A7
Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks
                                    D
Let them be doctors and lawyers and such
D                                         G
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
        A7
They'll never stay home and they're always alone
                       D  
Even with someone they love
Verse 2:
      D                                               G
Cowboys like smokey ol' pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
A7                                                D
little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
D
Them that don't know him won't like him
                 G
And them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
         A7
He ain't wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him
                                   D
Do things that make you think he's right

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