Jam Along & Learn...
[Bb]
Cowboys ain't easy to love, and hard [Eb] to hold.
[F] They'd rather give you a song than [Bb] diamonds or gold.
Lone star-belt buckles and old faded Levi's, and each night begins a new [Eb] day.
[F] If you don't understand him, he don't die [C] young, or probably just right [Bb] away.
[Gm] [Bb]
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be [Eb] cowboys.
[F] Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks.
Let them be doctors and [Bb] lawyers and such.
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up [Eb] to be cowboys.
Cause [F] they'll never stay home, and they're always alone, even with someone [Bb] they love.

[F]
[Bb]
Cowboys like smoky old pool rooms and clear mountain [Eb] mornings.
[F] Oh, and puppies and children and girls of [Bb] the night.
And that dumb no-hand won't like him, and then that dude sometimes don't know how to [Eb] take you.
[Bb] [F] He ain't wrong, he's just different, but his pride won't let him.
And things will make you [Bb] think he's right.
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to [Eb] be cowboys.
[F] Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks.
Let them be doctors and [Bb] lawyers and such.
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to [Eb] be cowboys.
[F] Cause they'll never stay [C] home, and they're always [C] alone, even with someone [Bb] they love.
[F] They'll never stay home, and they're always alone, even with someone [Bb] they love.
