(Verse 1)
D5           G5     D5              G5
I am an old woman named after my mother
D5             G5       A5                  D5
My old man is another child that?s grown old
D5              G5       D5             G5
If dreams were thunder lightning was desire
D5                         G5            A5          D5
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago



(Chorus)
D5          C5          G5              D5
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D5         C5            G5       D5
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D5            C5              G5          D5
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D5                  C5                G5           D5
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go



(Instrumental break)
D5    G5    D5    G5    D5    G5    A5    D5



(Verse 2)
D5            G5          D5                G5
When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy
D5                 G5             A5             D5
He wasn?t much to look at, just free rambling man
D5                   G5         D5             G5                   
But that was such a long time and no matter how I try
D5              G5              A5           D5
The years just flow by like a broken down dam.



(Chorus)
D5          C5          G5              D5
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D5         C5            G5       D5
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D5            C5              G5          D5
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D5                  C5                G5           D5
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go



(Instrumental Break)
D5    G5    D5    G5    D5    G5    A5    D5
D5    G5    D5    G5    D5    G5    A5    D5
D5    C5    G5    D5    D5    C5    G5    D5
D5    C5    G5    D5    D5    C5    G5    D5



(Verse 3)
D5                    G5       D5              G5
There?s flies in the kitchen I can hear all their buzzing
D5                G5               A5       D5 
And I ain?t done nothing since I woke up today.
D5            G5            D5                 G5                
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
D5                    G5                A5          D5
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.



(Chorus)
D5          C5          G5              D5
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D5         C5            G5       D5
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D5            C5              G5          D5
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D5                  C5                G5           D5
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
