(C) The panhandle dust
 (F) Is blowin hard (C) tonight
I can''t even see across the (G) road
I''m (C) thankful for the wind
 Its a (F) blessing in (C) disguise
It keeps me from (G) seeing
The lights of (C)Amarillo

The (F) lights of amarillo shine so (C) bright
Across the plains they became her guiding (G) light
I can (C) see them in the distance 
On a (F) clear panhandle (C) night
Shes out there (G) somewhere 
In the lights of (C) amarillo

(C) I can''t really blame her
(F) For leaving me (C) here
I couldn''t leave papa all (G) alone
She (C) wanted those kind of things
That (F) I could never give (C) her
She went to find (G) them
In the lights of (C) amarillo

Chorus

(C) Each night i''m so worn out
(F) From workin all day (C) long
Hoeing those endless cotton (G) rows
By (C) the time i''m laying down
(F) Her dancing shoes are going (C) on
Going out with some (G) cowboy
In the lights of (C) amarillo
