Tom: G
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
G 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
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
To believe in this living is just a 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
