Outlaw Country - "Just Watch Your Mama And Me' [Live from Austin, TX] chords
Start Jamming...
I'm gonna try to do this.
I don't know if I can.
I ain't never done it since I wrote it.
Wasn't that interesting?
It's quite an introduction there.
Anyway, this is for my kids and my wife.
I had to take it out.
I was gonna do it a while ago,
but you did one for your kids and your wife.
They're not the same kids, though.
Well, maybe not anyway.
How far did you know?
Who do you suspect?
Oh, Lord.
[C#] And I love them.
He got the [F#] greatest bunch of kids in the world.
You are my children, the gifts to the world.
You are the lights of my [C#] life.
You all [G#] have your good hearts, you have your own [C#] strengths, so I know you'll all [F#] do all right.
As I look to [C#] the future [B] from this [F#] day in time, the truth is I don't [C#] have a clue.
There are modern [G#] day wonders that I don't understand, so [C#] I'll leave that all up [F#] to you.
[B] But if you want to learn how to dance, [F#] just watch your mama and me.
[B]
[F#]
Just [G#m] a good old boy and [C#] his lady, [G#] nothing too fancy [C#] to see.
If you want to be happy, just [G#] watch your mama [F#] and me.
That ain't funny.
It could be.
It has all the ingredients.
There's been a time in my life it was funny.
[C#] Of course, I've been married more than most families.
[F#] There are so many changes changing too fast, things that I know nothing [C#] about.
But some things remain, stay just the same.
[G#] And that's where I might help [F#] you out.
[B] If you want to learn how to dance, [F#] just watch your mama and me.
[B]
[F#]
[G#m] Just a good old boy [C#] and his lady, [G#m] nothing too fancy [C#] to see.
[G#] If you want to be [C#] happy, just watch your mama [F#] and me.
[N]
Well,
[Cm] [A] [E]
[N] [A]
[N] I want y'all to know this is my son Gabe Rhodes back here. He's great.
[A] When he was a little kid, he used to always run around with his hands in his pockets and then
he'd go running down the rock road with his hands in his pockets.
And I never could teach him that
if he fell, he was going to fall on his face if he had his hands in his pockets.
One day,
he figured out what to do with his hands and we were all surprised.
He hadn't fallen on his face
since then.
I missed the first part of that.
Would you say that again?
I'll tell you later, Waylon.
One of the things he's learned to do.
That's what they say.
They say if you want to know if you're doing a good thing in your life,
you know, just look and see what's in your hands when you're working.
You boys remember that.
It's awful little.
Well, I'm funniest when I'm not
