Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Do [Em]you r[F#m]emembe[G]r [A]my p[D]oor mama,
twenty years ago [Em]today?
She was [G]sitting on the [D]front porch,
gently [G]rocking time [A]away.
You [D]stepped up in your
Stetson hat,
Wranglers and cowboy [Em]boots.
I thought her heart was [D]gonna stop
when [G]she looked [A]up at [D]you
Mama cried, dear girl, don't [Bm]be a fool
[D]There ain't not[G]hing to a ran[F#m]ch in han[Em]d
How about a [A]doctor or a lawyer
in a three -piece suit
Or that
Wall
Street [G]broke com[D]mand
I don't wanna see my [Bm]baby wind [A]up
[D]on the [G]road without [F#m]a home[Em]
Turn your [G]heart away before
[D]it's too late
Didn't [G]leave that [A]boy [D]alone
[Em][F#m][G][A][D]
Sometimes I think about the night
You took me for your [Em]wife
Mama said that [D]I had gone
And [G]thrown away my [A]life
I [D]couldn't listen to her then
I knew that she was [Em]wrong
When she cried, I [D]walked right back
to the [G]arms where [A]I bel[D]ong
Mama cried, dear girl, don't [Bm]be a fo[D]ol,
there ain't [G]nothin' to a [F#m]ranch [D]in' [Em]hand
How about a [A]doctor or a lawyer
in a three -piece suit or that
Wall
Street [G]broker [D]man?
I [A]don't [D]wanna see my [Bm]baby wind [A]up
[D]on the [G]road [F#m]without a [Em]home
Turn your [A]heart away before it's too late
And leave that [G]boy [D]alone
[G]Twenty years have come and gone
Your love proved my mama [A]wrong[D]
[A][Bm][D][G][F#m][Em][A][G][D]
Once you've died, girl,
don't [Bm]be a fool
[D]There ain't [G]nothin' to a [D]ranchin' [Em]hand
How about a [A]doctor or a lawyer
in a three -piece suit
Or that
Wall
Street
[G]Grover [D]man?
I don't want to see my [Bm]baby wind [A]up
[D]on the [G]road without [D]a h[F#m]ome[Em]
Turn your [A]heart away before it's too
late and leave that boy [G]alone[D]
Turn your [A]heart away before it's too late and
leave that boy [D]alone[Bm][A][G][A][D]
you
