MAMAW'S HOUSE
As recorded by Thomas Rhett feat. Morgan Wallen
(2023 release)




Intro
N.C.                                                                D  Bm  G  A
Sorry, y'all, my mamaw called me, I'll, I'll be right back, hello?


Verse 1
A             D                          Em               D
It was always hotter than the grease she used to fry that chicken
G                                      A
Smelled like Marlboro Reds and all the butter from her biscuits
         D                              Em D
And that Lincoln in the driveway, circa 1982
           G                              A
Was on the shiny side of rusty and on the paler side of blue
G                               A            D
'Cussin and complainin' weren't allowed in Mamaw's house


Chorus
         G                             D                 A
If every nightstand had a Bible, every front porch had a swing
         G                            D                A
If every backyard had a garden, every front door had a screen
      Bm               A                      G              D
Well, maybe this crazy world would straighten up and slow on down
G        A            D           Bm D G
If every town had a Mamaw's house


Verse 2
      D                   Bm
She'd ask if I was hungry every thirty seconds
    G                               A
And say things like "hellfire," "tarnation," and "I reckon's"
     D                            Bm
It's where I spent my summers and she put me to work
         G                        A
Shellin' peas and shuckin' corn until my fingers hurt
   G                           A         D
No tellin' who I'da been without Mamaw's house


Chorus
         G                             D                 A
If every nightstand had a Bible, every front porch had a swing
         G                            D                A
If every backyard had a garden, every front door had a screen
      Bm               A                      G              D
Yeah, maybe this crazy world would straighten up and slow on down
G        A            D
If every town had a Mamaw's house


Bridge
          G
Yeah, and if they did, when I punch the clock
  A                             G
Tonight, I know right where I'd be
G
I'd walk in and get a big ol' hug
      A
And a bigger glass of tea


Chorus
         G                             D                 A
If every nightstand had a Bible, every front porch had a swing
         G                            D                A
If every backyard had a garden, every front door had a screen
      Bm               A                      G              D
Yeah, maybe this crazy world would straighten up and slow on down
G        A            D
If every town had a Mamaw's house
      Bm               A                      G              D
Yeah, maybe this crazy world would straighten up and slow on down
G        A            D
If every town had a mamaw's house


Outro
Bm  G  D
