[A] Sha la la, [D] [A]
sha la la [E] la la la la, [D]
sha la [A] la la la la la [E] la
[A]
When the day [D] is dawning, [A]
on a Texas [E] Sunday morning
[A]
How I long to [D] be there, [A]
with Marie [E] who's waiting for me there
[F]
Every lonely [C] city, [F]
where I hang my [C] hat, [F]
ain't as half as [C] pretty
[E] Is where my baby's at
[A]
Is this the way [D] to Amarillo?

Every night I've been [E] hugging my fellow
[A]
Dreaming dreams [D] of Amarillo
[A]
And sweet [E] Marie [A] who waits for me
Show me the way to [D] Amarillo
[A]
I've been weeping [E] like a willow
[A]
Crying over [D] Amarillo

And sweet [E] Marie who [A] waits for me
Sha la la, [D] sha la la la la la, [A]

There's a [D] church bell ringing
Hear [A]
the song of [E] joy that it's singing
[A]
For the sweet [D] Marie and [A]
the guy [E] who's coming to see her
[F]
Just beyond the [C] highway, [F] there's an open [C] plain
And [F]
it keeps me [C] going, [E]
through the wind and rain
[A]
Is this the way to [D] Amarillo?

Every night I've been [E] hugging my fellow
[A]
Dreaming dreams [D] of Amarillo
[A]
And sweet [E] Marie [A] who waits for me
Show me the way [D] to Amarillo
