_ _ [E] _ I am [A] an old woman, _ _ _ [E] _ _ named [A] after my mother.
_ _ [E] My old man [A] is another, _ _ [B] a child that's grown [E] old. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Dreams were [A]
thunder, _ _ [E] _ _ lightning was [A] desire.
_ _ _ [E] _ This old house [A] would have burnt down _ [B]
a long time [E] _ ago. _ _
_ _ _ Make me [D] an angel, _ _ [A] _ flies _ [E] from Montgomery. _ _ _ _
Make [D] me a poster _ [A] of an old [F#] _ [E] _ rodeo. _ _
_ _ _ Just give [D] me one thing, _ that [A] I can [E] hold on to.
_ _ To believe in [A] this living is just [B] a [A] hard [E] way to _ go.

_ _ [E] _ When I [A] was a young girl, _ _ _ [E] _ you had [A] no cowboy.
_ _ [E] _ There wasn't much to [A] look at, _ just a [B] free [A] rambling [E] lane. _ _
_ _ _ But that was [A] a long time, _ _ [B] _ no [A] matter how I tried.
_ _ [E] The [A] years just flow by, like [B] a broken [E] down dam. _ _
_ _ _ _ Make me [D] an angel, _ _ [A] _ flies [E] from _ Montgomery. _ _ _ _
Make me [D] a poster _ _ [A] of an old _ [E] _ rodeo. _ _
_ _ _ Just give me [D] one thing, _ [A] that I can [E] hold on to.
_ _ To believe [A] in this living is just [D] a _ [A] hard [E] way to go. _

[A] _ _ There's flies in the kitchen, _ _ _ [E] _ I could hear [A] them, they're buzzing.
_ _ _ [E] _ And I [A] ain't done nothing, _ since [B] I woke [A] up [E] today. _ _ _
_ _ How the hell [A] can a person, [E] _ _ go to work [A] in the morning,
_ _ _ [E] _ _
come home in [A] the evening, _ and [B] have [A] nothing to [E] _ say? _ _
_ _ _ Make me [D] an angel, _ _ [A] flies _ [E] from _ Montgomery. _ _ _ _
Make me a [D] poster _ [A] of an old _ [E] rodeo. _ _ _
_ _ _ Just give [D] me one thing, _ [A] that I can [E] hold on to.
_ _ To believe [A] in this living is just [D] a _ [A] hard [E] way to go. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ To believe _ in [A] this living _ _ _ is just _ [B]
a _ _ _ _ _ hard _ way _ _ [E] to _ go. _ _ _ _ _ _
