Chords with lyrics
FF
Well, I slipped out of the house about sundown
Bb majorBb FF
While mama was a washing her hair
FF
And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come a lookin' for me
G7G7 C7C7
When she finds that I'm not there
FF
And if she catches her sweet thang a running around
Bb majorBb FF
I know there'll be the devil to pay
Bb majorBb FF D MajorD
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone through that door
G7G7 C7C7 FF F#F# G+G
And I can hear exactly what she'll say
G+G
Well, has anybody here see my sweet thang
C majorC G+G
I got a notion he'll be headin' this way
G+G
'Cause when my sweet thang's out tom cattin' around
A7A7 D MajorD
He finds a sandbox like this to play
G+G
I wanna tell all you barroom roses
C majorC G+G
That if my sweet thang does happen by
C majorC G+G A7A7
You'd better take my advice if you blink more than twice
C majorC D MajorD G+G
You'd better have something in your eye
C majorC G+G A7A7 D MajorD G+G F#F# FF
FF
Well, I gave my baby money on payday
Bb majorBb FF
Except a little she don't know that I've got
FF
'Cause there's a cute little waitress down at the corner cafe
G7G7 C7C7
And she seems to like me quite a lot
FF
Well, we were sittin' in this back booth a havin' a talk
Bb majorBb FF
And she's believen every word that I said
Bb majorBb FF D MajorD
When the door blew open and mama walked in
G7G7 C7C7 FF F#F# G+G
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead
G+G
Well, has anybody here see my sweet thang
C majorC G+G
I got a notion he'll be headin' this way
G+G
'Cause when my sweet thang's out tom cattin' around
A7A7 D MajorD
He finds a sandbox like this to play
G+G
I wanna tell all you barroom roses
C majorC G+G
That if my sweet thang does happen by
C majorC G+G A7A7
You'd better take my advice if you blink more than twice
C majorC D MajorD G+G
You'd better have something in your eye...
