Babies Making Babies chords by Miranda Lambert

• Capo on 6th

Capo on 6th fret


     G                        B7
Two kids from Tacoma in a '72 Nova

     Em                               C
No pill and barely old enough to drink

             G
Learned the ropes and tested science

         B7
Started pentecostal riots

      Em                                   C
In just five minutes behind the roller-rink

        Cm
In the backseat brings


               G
The American dream on a shoestring

             C
First you grow it, then you show it

               G
Give a good push just like a Brady

             D
Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

      G
Too soon to be a mother and father

            C
But too late for the alma mater

              G
Yeah it's always in the water

 D                G
Babies makin' babies


           G
Between diplomas and the diapers

       B7
They become couch quarter finders

 Em                              C
Savin' up for a Maytag microwave

         G
Oh but all has been forgiven

         B7
On the day the water christened

     Em                                            C
The best thing that could have happened by mistake


               G
The American dream on a shoestring

             C
First you grow it, then you show it

               G
Give a good push just like a Brady

             D
Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

      G
Too soon to be a mother and father

            C
But too late for the alma mater

              G
Yeah it's always in the water

 D                G        D      G     C     G     D
Babies makin' babies


              G
Well it's a tried and true equation

              B7
Maintains a small town population

       Em                        C
And turns us all into a family


               G
The American dream on a shoestring

             C
First you grow it, then you show it

               G
Give a good push just like a Brady

             D
Say you'll love them 'till your eighty

      G
Too soon to be a mother and father

            C
But too late for the alma mater

              G
Yeah it's always in the water

 D                Em         G
Babies makin' babies

           G
Yes it's always in the water,

 D                G        B7      Em       C     D     G
