Sweet Thang chords by George Jones

F
Well, I slipped out of the house about sundown

Bb                           F
While mama was a washing her hair

F
And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come a lookin' for me

         G7                 C7
When she finds that I'm not there

           F
And if she catches her sweet thang a running around

  Bb                            F
I know there'll be the devil to pay

            Bb                       F           D
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone through that door

          G7            C7           F  F# G
And I can hear exactly what she'll say



          G
Well, has anybody here see my sweet thang

        C                            G
I got a notion he'll be headin' this way

G
'Cause when my sweet thang's out tom cattin' around

   A7                           D
He finds a sandbox like this to play

        G
I wanna tell all you barroom roses

           C                       G
That if my sweet thang does happen by

             C                     G               A7
You'd better take my advice if you blink more than twice

            C              D        G
You'd better have something in your eye


C G A7 D G F# F


F
Well, I gave my baby money on payday

          Bb                             F
Except a little she don't know that I've got

F
'Cause there's a cute little waitress down at the corner cafe

        G7                       C7
And she seems to like me quite a lot

              F
Well, we were sittin' in this back booth a havin' a talk

          Bb                         F
And she's believen every word that I said

         Bb                 F           D
When the door blew open and mama walked in

        G7             C7       F     F#    G
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead


G
Well, has anybody here see my sweet thang

        C                            G
I got a notion he'll be headin' this way

G
'Cause when my sweet thang's out tom cattin' around

   A7                           D
He finds a sandbox like this to play

        G
I wanna tell all you barroom roses

           C                       G
That if my sweet thang does happen by

             C                     G               A7
You'd better take my advice if you blink more than twice

            C              D        G
You'd better have something in your eye...
