Angel From Montgomery

G           C     G              
I am an old woman named after my 
C
mother
G             C       D         
My old man is another child 
         G
that's grown old
G              C         G      
If dreams were lightning and 
            C
thunder were desire
G                       C        
This old house would've burnt 
    D         G
down a long time ago

           F          C          
Make me an angel that flies from 
G
Montgomery
          F            C       G
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Continues after the ad
             F              C     
Just give me one thing that I can 
        G
hold on to
                   C               
To believe in this living is just a
 D           G
 hard way to go


When I was a young girl, well I had 
me a cowboy
He weren't much to look at, just a 
free ramblin' man
But that was a long time, and no 
matter how I try
The years just flow by like a 
broken-down dam

Chorus


There's flies in the kitchen, I can 
hear em, they're buzzin'
But I ain't done nothin' since I 
woke up today
I the hell can a person goes to work
 in the morning
Come home in the evenin' and have 
nothin' to say


Chorus
