Momma ain't home tonight Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
She [C]looked like a lawyer's daughter,
[F]
Fresh out of the Ivy League,
Yeah and [G]I look like
the devil's prodigal son,
When she sat down next [C]to me,
Well I told her about my ol' bird dog,
She mentioned her pretty [F]friends,
[G]I said I'd sure like to meet
your family some time,
And she just laughed at
me [C]and said.

[Verse 2]
She said I [F]wouldn't take you
home to Momma,
You're a [C]diamond in the rough,
There's [G]just to many things about you,
That my Momma couldn't learn to [C]love,

[Verse 3]
She said I'm [F]crazy for even talking to you,
But [C]there's something about you I [F]like,
I [G]wouldn't take you home to Momma,
Yeah but Momma ain't home tonight,
[C][G][C]
All my buddies are green with envy,
[F]As we headed for the parking lot,
[G]Me with that long legged gal on my arm,
Just thinking 'bout you know [C]what,

[Verse 4]
She said [C]why don't you leave
your ragged old pickup,
We'll take my Cadillac,
[F]Next mor[G]nin' when I woke
up in her big brass bed,
She was begging me to hurry [C]back,

[Verse 5]
She said I [F]wouldn't take you
home to Momma,
You're a [C]diamond in the rough,
There's [G]just to many things about you,
That my Momma couldn't
learn to [C]love,

[Verse 6]
[F]She said [C]you[F][G][C]
[F][C][G][C]
[F][C][F][G][C]
[F]ain't good looking and you ain't real bright,
But [C]there's something about you I [F]like,
I [G]wouldn't take you home to Momma,

[Verse 7]
Yeah but Momma ain't home tonight,
[C]She said I wou[G]ld not take you
home to my Momma,

[Outro 1]
Yeah but Momma's out of town tonight.
[C]
