[Verse 1]
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       Esus4            E                 E
ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at.

[Chorus]
A            D           A     E
Is this the way to Amarillo, ev'ry night I've been hugging my pillow,
A              D           E                    A
dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me.
A              D              A            E
Show me the way to Amarillo, I've been weeping like a willow,
A                D               E    A
crying over Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me.

There's a churchbell ringing, hear the song of joy thats it's singing
A              D    E
for the sweet Maria and the guy who's coming to see her.
F             C           F    C
Just beyond the highway lies an open plain
F          C          Esus4         E       E
and it keeps me going through the wind and rain.
