Angel From Montgomery
Bonnie Raitt version
Capo on 2nd fret
Intro:| D G x2 | D G A D x 2
Verse 1
D G D G
I am an old woman named after my mother
D G A D
My old man is another child that's grown old
D G D G
If dreams were lightning and thunder desire
D G A D
This old house would've burnt down a long time ago
Chorus:
D C G D
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
D C G D
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
D C G D
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
D C G D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
Verse 2
D G D G
When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy
D G A D
Wasn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man
D G D G
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try
D G A D
These dreams go back like a broken-down dam
Repeat Chorus:
Solo: Like the Verses
Verse 3
D G D G
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear them a-buzzin'
D G A D
But I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today
D G D G
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
D G A D
Come home in the evenin', they got nothin' to say
Repeat Chorus:
After playing the last chorus, end with:
D C G D
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
