Angel From Montgomery Chords/Lyrics/Verse 1
G                 C          G                        C
I am an old woman named after my mother.
G                       C         D                            G
My old man is another child that's grown old.
                        C                    G                         C
If dreams were lightning and thunder were desire
G                                    C                    D               G
this old house would've burnt down a long time ago.
 
Angel From Montgomery Chords/Lyrics/Chorus
G                  F               C               G
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery.
                   F                  C       G
Make me a poster of an old rodeo.
             F              C                              G
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to.
                           C                     D                 G      C   G   C G C G
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

G                   C              G                 C
When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy,
G                            C                     D                   G
He wa'rn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man.
                      C               G                              C
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try,
G                    C                   D                     G
the years just flow by like a broken-down dam.

                     F                     C                G

There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear all their buzzin'
G                       C                     D               G
but I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today.
                                     C        G                            C
But how the hell can a person go to work in the morning
G                           C                          D              G
come home in the evenin' and have nothin' to say?
