I am an [B] old woman [F#] named after [B] my mother.
[F#] My old man [B] is another
[D#] [C#] child that's grown [F#] old.
If dreams [B] were lightning and [F#] thunder were [B]
desire,
[F#] this old house [B] would have burnt down [F#m] a long [F#] time ago.
Make [E] me an angel that [B] flies from [F#] Montgomery.
Make me a [E] poster of [B] an old [F#] rodeo.
Just give [E] me one thing [B] that I can hold [F#] on to.
To believe [B] in this living is just [C#] a hard way [F#] to go.
When I was [B] a young girl, [F#m] [F#]
well, I had me a [B] cowboy.
[F#] There weren't much to look [B] at, just a [C#] free ramblin' [F#] man.
But that was a [B] long time, [F#] and no matter [B] how I try,
[F#] the years just [B] flow by [C#] like a broken [F#]-down dam.
Make me [E] an angel that [B] flies [F#] from Montgomery.
Make me a [E] poster of [B] an old [F#] rodeo.
Just give [E] me one thing [B] that I can hold [F#] on to.

[F#m] [F#] I can hear them, [B] they're buzzin'.
[F#] And I ain't done [B] nothin' [C#] since I woke up [F#] today.
Have a health care [B] person, [F#]
go to work in the [B] morning,
and [F#]
come home in the [B] evening, and [C#] have nothin' [A] to [F#] say.
Make me [E] an angel [B] that flies from [F#] Montgomery.
