(Intro.)
|(D) / / / |(Bm) / / / |(G) / / / |(A) /
(Verse 1)
It was always (D)hotter than the grease she (Bm)used to fry that chicken
(G)Smelled like Marlboro Reds and all the (A)butter from her biscuits
And that (D)Lincoln in the driveway, circa (Bm)1982
Was on the (G)shiny side of rusty and on the (A)paler side of blue
(G) 'Cussin and complainin' weren't al-(A)lowed in Mamaw's house (D)
(Chorus)
If every (G)nightstand had a Bible, every (D)front porch had a (A)swing
If every (G)backyard had a garden, every (D)front door had a (A)screen
Well, (Bm)maybe this crazy (A)world would straighten (G)up and slow on (D)down
(G) If every (A)town had a Mamaw’s (D) house / / / |(Bm) / / / |(G) / /
(Verse 2)
She'd (D)ask if I was hungry (Bm)every thirty seconds
And (G)say things like "hellfire," “tar-(A)nation," and "I reckon's"
It's (D)where I spent my summers and (Bm)she put me to work
Shellin' (G)peas and shuckin' corn un-(A)til my fingers hurt
No (G)tellin' who I'da been with-(A)out Mamaw's house (D)
(Chorus)
If every (G)nightstand had a Bible, every (D)front porch had a (A)swing
If every (G)backyard had a garden, every (D)front door had a (A)screen
Yeah, (Bm)maybe this crazy (A)world would straighten (G)up and slow on (D)down
(G) If every (A)town had a Mamaw’s (D) house
(Bridge)
Yeah, and (G)if they did, when I punch the clock
Tonight, (A) I know right (Bm)where (A)I'd (G)be
(G)I'd walk in and get a big ol' hug
And a (A)bigger glass of tea
(Chorus)
If every (G)nightstand had a Bible, every (D)front porch had a (A)swing
If every (G)backyard had a garden, every (D)front door had a (A)screen
Yeah, (Bm)maybe this crazy (A)world would straighten (G)up and slow on (D)down
(G) If every (A)town had a Mamaw’s (D) house
(Outro.)
Yeah, (Bm)maybe this crazy (A)world would straighten (G)up and slow on (D)down
(G) If every (A)town had a mamaw’s (D) house
