  • example:
  • Bb Eb F Bb ... key change ... C F G C
Bb(f)                  Bb(d)
Cowboys ain't easy to love
      Bb      (ab)     Eb(eb)
And they're harder to hold
  F(eb)                  (a)
They'd rather give you a song
 Bb   (a-g)     Bb(f)
Than diamonds or gold

Lonestar belt buckles and old faded Levis
And each night begins a new day
If you don't understand him and he don't die young
He'll probably just ride away

refrain:
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don't let 'em pick guitars or drive them old trucks
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
'Cause they'll never stay home and they're always alone
Even with someone they love

C(g)                  C(e)
Cowboys like smoky old pool rooms
      C      (f)      F(c)
And clear mountain mornings
  G(f)                   (b)
Little warm puppies and children
 G   (b-a)      C(g)
And girls of the night

Them that don't know him
Won't like him and them that do
Sometimes won't know how to take him
He ain't wrong, he's just different
But his pride won't let him
Do things to make you think he's right

refrain:
  • A D E A
A(e)                  A(c#)
Cowboys ain't easy to love
      A      (g)      D(d)
And they're harder to hold
  E(d)                   (ab)
They'd rather give you a song
  A   (ab-f#)      A(e)
Than diamonds or gold

Lonestar belt buckles and old faded Levis
And each night begins a new day
If you don't understand him and he don't die young
He'll probably just ride away

refrain:
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don't let 'em pick guitars or drive them old trucks

They'd rather give you a song
  G   (f#-e)      G(d)
Than diamonds or gold
