Pam Tillis (born July 24, 1957 in Plant City, Florida) is an American country music singer and actress. The daughter of singer Mel Tillis, she grew up in Nashville, TN surrounded by music. At age eight, she sang on the Grand Ole Opry.
Rhinestoned says it all. No other word, real or invented for the occasion, sums up as well where Pam Tillis stands now.
She is, after all, a superstar as well as a survivor. A child of Music City royalty and a former rebel, she was determined to find her own way as a singer and songwriter — and she succeeded.

HOMEWARD LOOKING ANGEL (Pam Tillis, Bob DiPiero) ------------------------------------------------
GGFFGGFF [intro]
GGFF She saw the ragged edge of nowhere from a fast moving train GGFF Watched the scenery fly by with a fever in her brain EmEmA7A7 Seemed like a good time at the time, rolling down that track EmEmA7A7 Now the only thing she wants is a one-way ticket back
DBmDBm SheUs a homeward looking angel and she's feeling mighty tired DBmGBm Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired DBmDBm And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things DBmGA And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings GGFF Soon as she can find her wings, oh oh ohh-ohhh GGFF [instrumental; see tab at end for one riff]
She's so very hungry for a piece of Mama's pie Served up on Grandma's china after church on Sunday night Oh, now Papa's probably turning out the lights and heading up the stairs And the wayward child he never talks about still turns up in his prayers
She's a homeward looking angel and she must be feeling mighty tired Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings
CDGAA Oh, yeah... [instrumental] FF There's a road ahead and a road behind GAA All roads lead to home this time
She's a homeward looking angel and she's feeling mighty tired She went gunning for glory but her bullets all misfired And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings Soon as she can find her wings, oh oh ohh-ohhh Homeward looking angel [instrumental & ad lib vocals; repeat and fade on G G F F etc.]

(This is the low riff that's played after the first chorus and in the fade-out.)
