Ornery Old WomanCifra

Tom:D
Verso 1:
D You’re an ornery old woman Em And hard as an Iron Wood tree G You never opened your mouth A D Except to criticize me But you worked like a mule for 43 years Em Driving the bailer and greasing the gears G A And you know every inch of these mountains D And I’ll never please you Em I give up a long time ago G How we managed to hold on A How we managed to hold on I’ll never know D Through winters and droughts and everything else Em You never gave a single thought to you yourself G A And you always were the one damn thing I could count onG I ain’t got the words A D For what I’m trying to say G Em A We never were much for talking anyway G A D G We’re joined at the hip and there’s no place I’d rather be Em G A D Than standing right here with you standing by meVerso 2:
D Em You say I’m too hard on our kids but I don’t agree G A I ain’t as hard on them as life’s gonna be D You harp on me and I don’t like change Em Soon enough they’ll take over the reins G A And if they ain’t ready this place’ll sink like a stone D Em Sometimes you make me so mad I can’t sit down G A That’s when I climb in my truck and head off towards town D And I argue with you though you ain't even ther Em Ventng my spleen in the open air G A Then pretty soon I turn around and drive back homeG I ain’t got the words A D For what I’m trying to say G Em A We never were much for talking anyway G A D G We’re joined at the hip and there’s no place I’d rather be Em A D Than standing right here with you standing by meOutro: G I ain’t got the words A D For what I’m trying to say G Em A We never were much for talking anyway G A D G We’re joined at the hip and there’s no place I’d rather be Em A D Than standing right here with you standing by me Em A D Standing right here with you standing by meVerso 3:
D Em Tomorrow we’ll gather those steers from off the south end G A They’ve grazed it all down it’s time we brought ‘em in D Now supper’s long over and you’re sittin’ there Em Falling asleep in that old leather chair G A You never could stay up late at all D Em I touch your hand and tell you it’s time for bed G A You nod and get up without a word being said D Together we close up the house for the night Em I pause a moment before I shut off the light G A And I turn follow you down the hall
