E I am an old A woman E named after my A mother.
E My old man is a A nother D child that's grown E old.
If dreams were A thunder E and lightning was de A sire
E this old house would've A burnt down a D long time E ago.
CHORUS
Make me an D angel that A flies from E Montgomery.
Make me a D poster of A an old E rodeo.
Just give me D one thing that A I can hold E on to.
To believe in this D living is just a A hard way to E go. A E A
When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy,
wa'n'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.
(repeat chorus)
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear all their buzzin'
but I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today.
I am kind of person goes to work in the morning
come home in the evenin' and have nothin' to say.
(repeat chorus)
To believe in this D living is just a A hard way to E go.
