D MajorD      G+G   D MajorD        G+G
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

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

The years just flow by like    a broken-down dam

Just give me one thing that I can hold on to

To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear them a-buzzin'
D MajorD       G+G        A augmentedA         D MajorD
But I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today

How the hell can a person go to work in the morning

Come home in the evenin', they got nothin' to say
