Title: Mama Hated Diesels

[Intro]
D G D A/D
Mama hated diesels so bad
D G D
I guess I knew it was something to do with dad
G D Bm
The first time I ever seen her cry, was after one of them things went by
D G D
Mama hated diesels so bad

[Verse 1]
D G D
I remember hearin' those semis gearing down
D A
My mom and me lived right on the high grade end of town
G D
I sure loved them white freighters, but there was somethin' in Mama's eyes
D A D
when she'd catch me watching the road, lord, a little bitty piece of her died

[Chorus]
D G D A/D
Mama hated diesels so bad
D G D
I guess I knew it was something to do with dad
G D Bm
The first time I ever seen her cry, was after one of them things went by
D G D
Mama hated diesels so bad

[Verse 2] (Spoken)
D G
As the years passed and I grew older, mama did too
D
Pretty soon she stopped singin' and laughin', well, she'd hardly even eat
A
I began staying away from home on the weekdays, and wouldn't come home from

school till'

way after dark
G
I was always too busy havin' fun either messing around with some girl or

hanging around

the truckstop
D
or talking too my buddies about about the big rigs that were all the time

rollin' in
A
Or talking about all the crazy places we never been, like California

[Verse 3] (Spoken)
