[Verse 1]
Dsus2       G6sus2 Dsus2          G6sus2
I am an old woman  named after my mother.
Dsus2           G6sus2  Asus2              D  Dsus4 D
My old man is another child that's grown old.
               G6sus2   Dsus2                G6sus2
If dreams were lightning and thunder were desire
Dsus2                     G6sus2        Asus2       D Dsus4 D
  this old house would've burned down a long time ago.
 
[Chorus]
           Cadd9      G              D     Dsus4 D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery.
          Cadd9        G       D  Dsus4 D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo.
             Cadd9          G          D    Dsus4 D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to.
                   Cadd9            G           D  Dsus4 D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.
 
[Verse 2]

When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy,
Dsus2                G6sus2          Asus2 Asus2    D  Dsus4 D
  He wa'rn't much to look at, just a free  ramblin' man.
               G6sus2    Dsus2               G6sus2
But that was a long time, and no matter how hard I try,
   Dsus2        G6sus2        Asus2 Asus2 D  Dsus4 D
the years just roll by like a broke-down dam.
 
[Chorus]
           Cadd9        G            D     Dsus4 D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery.
          Cadd9        G   G   D  Dsus4 D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo.
             Cadd9          G          D    Dsus4 D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to.
                   Cadd9            G           D  Dsus4 D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

[Verse 3]
                       G6sus2 Dsus2             G6sus2
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear them a-buzzin'
Dsus2              G6sus2          Asus2 Asus2 D  Dsus4 D
  and I ain't done nothin' since I woke  up today.
                   G6sus2 Dsus2               G6sus2
How the hell can a person  go to work in the morning
Dsus2                  G6sus2           Asus2  Asus2   D  Dsus4 D
  and come home in the evenin' and have no - thing to say?
 
[Chorus]
