	E	A
	When the day is	dawning,

	E	B
	On a Texas	Sunday Morning

	E	A
	How I long to	be there

	E	B
	With Marie whos	waiting for me there

	C	G
	Every lonely	city

	C	G
	Where i hang my	hat

	C	G
	Aint as half as	pretty,

	B	B7
As	where my baby’s	at

		E	A
		Is this the way to	Amarillo?

		E	B
		Every night I’ve been	hugging my pillow

		E	A
		Dreaming dreams of	Amarillo

		E	B	E
		And sweet Mar	ie who	waits for me

		E	A
		Show me the way to	Amarillo

		E	B
		I’ve been weeping	like a willow

		E	A
		Crying over	Amarillo

		E	B	E
		And sweet Mar	ie who	waits for me

	E	A
	Sha la la la	la la la la

	E	B
	Sha la la la	la la la la

	A	E
	Sha la la la	la la la la

	B7	E
	And Marie who	waits for me

	E	A
	Theres a church bell	ringing

	E	B
	hear the song of	joy that its singing

	E	A
	For the sweet Mar	ia

	E	B
	And the guy whos	coming to see her

	C	G
	Just beyond the	highway

	C	G
	Theres an open	plane

	C	G
	and it keeps me	going

	B	B7
	Through the wind and	rain

		E	A
		Is this the way to	Amarillo?

		E	B
		Every night I’ve been	hugging my pillow

		E	A
		Dreaming dreams of	Amarillo

		E	B	E
		And sweet Mar	ie who	waits for me

		E	A
		Show me the way to	Amarillo

		E	B
		I’ve been weeping	like a willow

		E	A
		Crying over	Amarillo

		E	B	E
		And sweet Mar	ie who	waits for me

	E	A
	Sha la la la	la la la la

	E	B
	Sha la la la	la la la la

	A	E
	Sha la la la	la la la la
