| I am an old | woman | named after my | mother. |
| E | A | D | E | |
| My old man is a | nother | child that's grown | old. |
| A | E | A | |
| If dreams were | thunder | and lightning was de | sire |
| E | A | D | E | |
| this old house would've | burnt down a | long time | ago. |
| CHORUS |
| D | A | E | |
| Make me an | angel that | flies from | Montgomery. |
| D | A | E | |
| Make me a | poster of | an old | rodeo. |
| D | A | E | |
| Just give me | one thing that | I can hold | on to. |
| D | A | E | A | E | A | |
| To believe in this | living is just a | hard way to | go. |
| 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) |
| D | A | E | |
| To believe in this | living is just a | hard way |
"What the hell kind of person" in the version I have (from live version on Road Tested) (well deserved bitching about her husband, I must say)
