G                C              G     G
  Mama knows the highway by the songs
         G                G           D      D
When she hears a good one, she always sings along
G              C                  G    G
She don't ever worry 'bout what's gone
          G             G      D                      G       G
She says, "Good country music... will never steer you wrong."
 
G                C                 G      G
She talks to the truckers with her lights
G                       A7               D      D
Maybe just a little bit more on Saturday nights
G           C            G        G
She knows a good road to paradise
           G              D                G         G
And that's just enough to keep the highway bright
 
[CHORUS]
      C              C              G     G
Yeah, Mama knows the highway now by heart
G       D/F#    Em             D       D
She can see the rain before it starts
G             C/G       G                  C/G
Looking clear through a windshield full of stars
G                D              G     C    G    Em D
  Mama knows the highway now by heart...        // //

She can tell Wyoming jus' by the wind
        G            G              G             D   D
She can tell another trucker by the rig that he's in
G                C               G      G
She knows how to watch the river bends
G                   D            G     G
She knows where the real South begins

She can gauge a cafe just by, looking at the sign

  Little old places always share the grand design...
