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            G 
and song spillin’ out off of every page 


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            G 
but they said you rode off with the last rodeo 

Chorus 

Bridge 

C   
Well the thunders are rumblin’  
and the tumbleweeds tumblin’ 
D 
and the rodeo clowns are paintin’ their face 
C 
I’m gunnin’ the throttle for Llano Estacado   
Am7                    D 
on a wild appaloosa I’m blowing your way 

verse 3 

G      D        C            G 
Down in old Amarillo there’s a light in the window 
G      D        C            G 
where a rogue weary shadow drifts into the arms 
G      D        C            G 
of a long distance lover then they turn back the covers 
G      D        C            G 
and dance the Redova till the light of the dawn
