Dont Tell Mamma by Gary Allan G C G I was headed north on highway five/ on a star-lit Sundaynight/ When a pick-up truck D G C flew by me out of control/ As I watched in my headlights/ He swerved left then back G D G right/ He never hit the brakes as he left the road/ I found him lying in the grass/ C G D G Among the steel and glass/ With an empty whiskey bottle by his side/ And through C G D G the blood and tears/ He whisperd in my ear/ A few last words just before he died/ chorus NC C G D G Don't Tell Mamma I was drinkin'/ Lord knows her soul would never rest/ I can't leave C G D G this world with Mamma thinkin' / I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath G C G I still think about that night/ and how that young man died/ And how others somtimes D G C G pay for our mistakes/ The last thing on his mind/ As he left this world behind/ Was D G knowing someone elses heart would break/ (repeat chorus) www.TAB6.com
