I am an old woman   named after my mother
D MajorD              G+G         A augmentedA                 D MajorD
My old man is another   child that's grown old
D MajorD              G+G         D MajorD                    G+G
If dreams were thunder   and lightning was desire
D MajorD              G+G                A augmentedA                 D MajorD
This old house would've burnt down a long time ago


Chorus:
D MajorD          C majorC           G+G             D MajorD
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D MajorD         C majorC            G+G       D MajorD
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D MajorD            C majorC              G+G           D MajorD
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D MajorD                   G+G               A augmentedA          D MajorD
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go


Verse:
D MajorD           G+G                   D MajorD               G+G
When I was a young girl         I had me a cowboy
D MajorD              G+G                A augmentedA                 D MajorD
Wasn't much to look at,         just a free ramblin' man
D MajorD           G+G                   D MajorD               G+G
But that was a long time,       and no matter how I try
D MajorD              G+G                A augmentedA                 D MajorD
The years just flow by like       a broken-down dam
