Cowboys and Daddys    (Marty Cooper)

Special thanks are due to Dr Y.S. Lee for working out the chords for this song

A                      E            A                E
I know you're sleepy, it's time to go home
   D            C#m           D          A
Momma is waiting, for you all alone
            D                   A
But I'll see you next Sunday
            Bm         C#m
Let me dry your eyes
                      D                A          E7             A
You know, Cowboys and Daddys, don't ever cry

A                E              A             E
I liked the movie, the picnic was fun
        D         C#m                     D                            A
Of course, I still love you, you don't have to ask me son
            D                    A
And I'll see you next Sunday
                 Bm        C#m
And let me dry your eyes
                                D                 A         E7            A
'Cause you know, Cowboys and Daddys, don't ever cry

Chorus
   C#m                                  D
I dream some day, we could go away
                                   A                     B7        E
I'd take you down to Mexico or up on Hudson's Bay
     F#m                                 C#m
Are but only a fool, knows the grief of schemes
                 D                           B7          E
I've never been too good, at planning it seems

  A                                E                     A             E
Some day when you're older and the Cowboys grown
  D                       C#m            D                     A
You'll know how it hurts every time I take you home
   D                    A               Bm            C#m
I wait for each Sunday with tears in my eyes
                      D                  A         E7            A
That's when Cowboys and Daddys, don't ever cry
   D                    A        E7            A
Cowboys and Daddys don't ever cry.
