[Verse 1]
D G D G
I am an old woman named after my mother
D G A D
My old man is another child that’s grown old
D G D G
If dreams were thunder lightning was desire
D G A D
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago
[Chorus]
D C G D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D C G D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D C G D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D C G D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
[Instrumental]
D G D G D G A D
[Verse 2]
D G D G
When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy
D G A D
He wasn’t much to look at, just free rambling man
D G D G
But that was such a long time and no matter how I try
D G A D
The years just flow by like a broken down dam.
[Chorus]
D C G D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D C G D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D C G D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D C G D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
[Instrumental]
D G D G D G A D
D G D G D G A D
D C G D D C G D
D C G D D C G D
[Verse 3]
D G D G
There’s flies in the kitchen I can hear all their buzzing
D G A D
And I ain’t done nothing since I woke up today.
D G D G
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
D G A D
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.
[Chorus]
D C G D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D C G D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D C G D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D C G D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
