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]
              D                          Bm               
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                              Bm
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 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                   Bm    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] G D
