Intro SOL DO x2 SOL DO RE SOL x 2
Verse 1
SOL DO SOL DO
I am an old woman named after my mother
SOL DO RE SOL
My old man is another child that's grown old
SOL DO SOL DO
If dreams were lightning and thunder desire
SOL DO RE SOL
This old house would've burnt down a long time ago
Chorus
SOL FA DO SOL
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
SOL FA DO SOL
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
SOL FA DO SOL
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
SOL FA DO SOL
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
Wasn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try
These dreams go back like a broken-down dam
Repeat Chorus:
Solo: Like the Verses, I strum it a little choppy to keep it interesting
Verse 3
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear them a-buzzin'
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
Repeat Chorus:
SOL FA DO SOL
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
SOL FA DO SOL
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
SOL FA DO SOL
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
SOL FA DO SOL
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
