Standalone, this song is pretty easy and repetitive. But make
it your own style by filling up space between the words by
plucking strings in different patterns of your choice throughout
the song. I stole these lyrics from another site so they're
probably not right but... enjoy!
Verse 1:
EI am an old Awoman naEmed after my moAther
EMy old man is anAother chiBmld that's grown oEld
EIf dreams were tAhunder lEightning was desiAre
EThis old house would have bAurnt down a lBmong time agEo
Chorus:
EMake me an aDngel that flAies from montgEomery
EMake me a pDoster of an oAld rodeEo
EJust give me oDne thing that AI can hold Eon to
ETo believe in this lDiving is just a hAard way to Ego
Verse 2:
EWhen I was a yAoung girl well, I hEad me a cAowboy
EHe weren't much to lAook at, just fBmree rambling mEan
EBut that was a long tAime and Eno matter how AI try
EThe years just fAlow by like a bBmroken down dEam.
(Repeat chorus/interlude)
Verse 3:
EThere's flies in the kAitchen I can hEear 'em there bAuzzing
EAnd I ain't done nAothing since I wBmoke up tEoday.
EHow the hell can a pAerson Ego to work in the Amorning
EAnd come home in the eAvening and have nBmothing to sEay?
(Repeat chorus)
