Played as a Waltz Chords for Verses and Chorus: G D C G [Verse 1]
G                           D            C            G
Well, the world's greatest wonder from what I can tell

G                     D              C       G
Is how a cowgirl like you could ever look my way

G               D              C            G
I was blinded by glory with a half written story

G                 D            C            
and song spillin' out off of every page
[Chorus]
G          D     C            G
Sweet Amarillo, tears on my pillow

G          D        C            G
You never will know how much I cried

G         D            C            G
Sweet Amarillo, like a wind in the willow

G             D          C            G
Damn this old cowboy for my foolish pride
[Verse 2]
G               D              C        G
So I drifted on down from the Iron Ore range

G               D                  C            G
Caught the wide Missouri where the cool waters flow

G             D          C              G
When I got to Topeka, I looked up your name

G                      D            C            
but they said you rode off with the last rodeo
[Chorus]
G          D     C            G
Sweet Amarillo, tears on my pillow

G          D        C            G
You never will know how much I cried

G         D            C            G
Sweet Amarillo, like a wind in the willow

G             D          C            G
Damn this old cowboy for my foolish pride
[Bridge]
C  
Well, the thunders are rumblin'
and the tumbleweeds tumblin'
         D
and the rodeo clowns are paintin' their face

     Am
I'm gunnin' the throttle for Llano Estacado  

      C                 D
on a wild appaloosa I'm blowing your way
(Instrumental Verse) [Verse 3]
G               D                C            G
Down in old Amarillo there's a light in the window

G                   D             C        G
where a road weary shadow drifts into the arms

G                  D                C             G
of a long distance lover, then they turn back the covers

G             D               C            
and dance the Redova till the light of the dawn
[Chorus]
G D C G
