  Papa Loved Mama

  

  Garth Brooks

  

  E7

  Papa drove a truck nearly all his life

              A7

  You know it drove mama crazy being a trucker's wife

      B7

  The part she couldn't handle was the being alone

              C                               B7

  I guess she needed more to hold than just a telephone

  E7

  Papa called mama each & every night

          A7

  Just to ask her how she was & if us kids were alright

   B7

  Mama would wait for that call to come in

              C                    B7         E7

  But when daddy'd hang up she was gone again

  

  

  chorus.... #1   A7

                  Mama was a looker Lord how she shined

                    E7

                  Papa was a good'n but the jealous kind

                    A7

                  Papa loved mama, mama loved men

                   Em                      B7           E7

                  Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen

  

  

  

  Well it was bound to happen & one night it did

  Papa came home & it was just us kids

  He had a dozen roses & a bottle of wine

  If he was looking to surprise us he was doing fine

  I heard him cry for mama up & down the hall

  Then I heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall

  That old diesel engine made an eerie sound

  When papa fired it up & headed into town

  

  

  chorus... #2    Well the picture in teh paper showed the scene real well

                  Papa's rig was buried in the local Motel

                  The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear

                  He never hit the breaks & he was shifting gears

  

  chorus... #1.....

  

  Em                      B7            E7

  Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen

  Mama's in the graveyard papa's in the pen
