Willie Nelson – Mammas Dont Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys (Ukulele)

C                                           F
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

      G
don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks

         G7     C
make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such

C                                          F
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

        G
they'll never stay home and they're always alone

     G7         C
even with someone they love

C                                                F
Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold

    G                 G7          C
and they'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold

C
Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levis and each night

        F
begins a new day

       G
and if you don't understand him and he don't die young

          G7            C
he'll probably just ride away

C                                        F
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

      G
don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks

         G7     C
make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such

C                                        F
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys

        G
they'll never stay home and they're always alone

     G7         C
even with someone they love

D                    G
A cowboy loves smokey old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings

A                A7       D
little warm puppies and children and girls of the night

D
Them that don't know him won't like him and them that do sometimes

             G
won't know how to take him

    A
he's not wrong he's just different and his pride won't let him

            A7  D
do things to make you think he's right
