Papa Loved Mama
Recorded by Garth Brooks
Written by Kim Williams and Garth Brooks
C 
Papa drove a truck nearly all of his life
 
You know it  
F 
drove mama crazy bein' a trucker's wife
 
The  
G7 
part she couldn't handle was bein' alone
 
I guess she  
G# 
needed more to hold than just a  
G7 
telephone
C 
Papa called mama each and every night
 
Just to  
F 
ask her how she was and if the kids were alright
G7 
Mama would wait for the call to come in
 
But when  
G# 
daddy hung up the phone  
G7 
she was gone  
C 
again
F 
Mama was a looker Lord how she shined
C 
Papa was a good'n but the jealous kind
F 
Papa loved mama mama loved men
 
Mama's in the graveyard  
G7 
papa's in the  
C 
pen
Well it was bound to happen and one night it did
 
Papa  
F 
came home and it was just us kids
 
He  
G7 
had a dozen roses and a bottle of wine
 
If he was  
G# 
looking to surprise us  
G7 
he was doing  
C 
fine
I heard him cry for mama up and down the hall
 
Then I  
F 
heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall
 
Oh that  
G7 
old diesel engine made an eerie sound
 
When papa  
G# 
fired it up and  
G7 
headed into  
C 
town
F 
The picture in the paper showed the scene real well
C 
Papa's rig buried in the local motel
F 
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
 
He never hit the brakes and he  
G7 
was shifting  
C 
gears

Repeat #3
