A               D       A          E
When the day is dawning on a Texas Sunday morning
A             D        A                E
how I long to be there with Marie who's waiting for me there
F            C    F               C
Every lonely city where I hang my hat
F                C         Bm              E
ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at

A                  D         A                     E
Is this the way to Amarillo? Every night I've been hugging my pillow
A                  D        A/E         E       A
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me
                   D         A                 E
Show me the way to Amarillo. I've been weeping like a willow
A           D        A/E         E       A
Crying over Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me
            D           A           E
Sha la la lala lala la. Sha la la lala lala la
D           A           E             A
Sha la la lala lala la, and Marie who waits for me

A                     D        A                 E
There's a church bell ringing. Hear the song of joy that it's singing
A               D   A                 E
for the sweet Maria and the guy who's coming to see her
F               C       F               C
Just beyond the highway there's an open plain
F               C     Bm                   E
and it keeps me going throught the wind and rain

A                  D         A                     E
Is this the way to Amarillo? Every night I've been hugging my pillow
