montgomery, license, from, angel, Prine

A great John Prine song. Angel from Montgomery refers to the hope that the Governor in Montgomery, (Alabama) would send a pardon or reprieve to a prisoner.Refers now to any kind of pardon, rescue or relief. Guitar tuned DGB. Song uses GCD and F chords.My granddaughter also has a video of the same song in with my videos. I like hers best. :)Wishing you all angels.

Ohh, Papa. That would be a great song for the nation. I like it, but do not think I could pull it off.

John Prine is the coolest!

"Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to Rose!"

Thanks people. It's a great song. John M., it is no wonder I like this git. It does sound like the White Owl, but with a little more volume. Charles, a bit thanks. TC, I like the Bonnie Raitt version too - and my version is 31 steps below hers. But, thanks, my friend.
