Tom: D
D D7 G
A long time forgotten are dreams that just fell by the way
A7 D
The good life he promised ain't what she's living today
D D7 G
But she never complains of the bad times or bad things he's done, Lord
A7 D
She just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to
come
[Chorus]
D D7 G
She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
A7 D
She loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand
D D7 G
Through teardrops and laughter, they'll pass through this world hand-in-hand,
A7 D
A good-hearted woman loving her good timing man
[Verse 2]
E A
Cowboys like smokey ol' pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
B E
Little warm puppies, and children, and girls of the night
E A
Them that don't know him won't like him and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
B
He ain't wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him
E
Do the things to make you think he's right
[Chorus]
E A
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
B
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
E
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
E A
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
B
They'll never stay home and they're always alone
E
Even with someone they love
