 C                                          F 
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
      G7 
Don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks
                                    C 
Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
                                           F 
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
        G7 
They'll never stay home and they're always alone
                       C 
Even with someone they love
                                                 F 
Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold
    G7                                             C 
And they'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold
                                              
Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levis
         F 
And each night begins a new day
       G7 
And if you don't understand him and he don't die young
                         C 
He'll probably just ride away
  
 C                                          F 
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
      G7 
Don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks
                                    C 
Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
                                           F 
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
        G7 
They'll never stay home and they're always alone
                       C           D 
Even with someone they love
                                                        G 
A cowboy loves smokey old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
 A7                                                D 
Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
                                                        
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's not wrong he's just different and his pride won't let him
                                 D 
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 them pick guitars and drive in old trucks
                                    D 
Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
                                           G 
Mammas 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
