_ _ Make [A] me an angel that flies [E] from Montgomery.

_ _ _ [E] When I [A] was a young girl _ [E] and I [A] had me a cowboy,
_ _ Wasn't much to look at, just a free rambling _ man.
That was a long [E] _ time, and [A] no matter how hard I [B] tried,
The [A] years flow by [B] like a broken down dam.

rodeo.
_ _ Just [F#m] give me one thing [A] that I can [E] hold on to.

_ _ _ There's flies in the kitchen, _ _ I can [A] hear them buzzing.
_ And I ain't done nothing since I [B] woke [A] up today.
_ _ [E] How the hell [A] can a person _ [E] go to [A] work in the morning
_ [E] And come [A] home in the evening and [B] have nothing [E] to say?
