Move Over Momma by Justin Townes Earle
*Not My Song - Thanks to  twizzle05 at country tabs for writing this out
GI come home in the middle of the night
GI get my bags inside, I'm bein' real quiet, mama
GWalk in the door and turn on the light
GI found you flat on your back with your legs open wide
CHORUS:
CMove on over, mama I'm comin' Ghome
DWoman you been sleepin' in the Cmiddle of the bed too Glong
Got the dishes on the counter, got pillows on the floor
Mama, weeks' worth of trash sittin' there by the door
You say your feet are tired and you can't get to the store
But mama I don't care about no household chores
CHORUS:
Make it clean mama, Lord I'm comin' home
Woman you been sleepin' in the middle of the bed too long
SOLO (verse and chorus chords)
BRIDGE:
Well now Cpushin' and pullin' tossin' and turnin'
GKeepin' me up
CShove on over baby, don't you make me wait
Because your Ddaddy's tired and he's softenin' up
I say ain't got room mama ain't gotta cook
You ain't gotta tell me things you read in your books
When I come home late you ain't gotta wait up
But when I pull up them covers don't you give me that look
CHORUS:
Baby, mama, Lord I'm comin' home
Woman you been sleepin' in the middle of the bed too long

Move Over Momma by Justin Townes Earle

*Not My Song - Thanks to twizzle05 at country tabs for writing this out

I come home in the middle of the night

I get my bags inside, I'm bein' real quiet, mama

Walk in the door and turn on the light

I found you flat on your back with your legs open wide

CHORUS:

C G

Move on over, mama I'm comin' home

D C G

Woman you been sleepin' in the middle of the bed too long

Got the dishes on the counter, got pillows on the floor

Mama, weeks' worth of trash sittin' there by the door

You say your feet are tired and you can't get to the store

But mama I don't care about no household chores

CHORUS:

Make it clean mama, Lord I'm comin' home

Woman you been sleepin' in the middle of the bed too long

SOLO (verse and chorus chords)

BRIDGE:

Well now pushin' and pullin' tossin' and turnin'

Keepin' me up

Shove on over baby, don't you make me wait

Because your daddy's tired and he's softenin' up

I say ain't got room mama ain't gotta cook

You ain't gotta tell me things you read in your books

When I come home late you ain't gotta wait up

But when I pull up them covers don't you give me that look

CHORUS:

Baby, mama, Lord I'm comin' home

Woman you been sleepin' in the middle of the bed too long
