(No Capo)
Intro.: 3/4|(G) |(D) |(C) |(G) | x 4
Well the (G)world's greatest (D)wonder from (C)what I can (G)tell
Is how a cowgirl like (D)you could ever (C)look my way (G)
I was planted by (D)glory with a (C)half written (G)story
And the songs (D)spilling out off of (C)every page (C/G) (C)
(Chorus)
(G)Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, (C)tears on my (G)pillow
You never will (D) know (C)how much I (G)cried
Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, like the (C)wind in the (G)willow
Damn, this old (D)cowboy for (C)my foolish (G)pride
Solo: |(G) (D) |(C) |(G) | x 2
So I (G) drifted on down (D) from (C)iron old (G)range
Across the wide Mis-(D)souri, where the (C)cool waters (G)flow
When I got to To-(D)peka, I (C)looked up your (G)name
It said you rode (D)off with the (C)last rodeo (C/G) (C)
(Chorus)
(G)Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, (C)tears on my (G)pillow
You never will (D) know (C)how much I (G)cried
Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, like the (C)wind in the (G)willow
Damn, this old (D)cowboy for (C)my foolish (G)pride
Solo: |(G) |(D) |(C) |(G)
(Bridge)
When the (C)thunders a-rumbling and the tumbleweed's tumbling
And the (D)rodeo clown's off painting their face
I'm (Am)gunning the throttle for the Llano Estacado
On the (C)wild appaloosa, I'm (D)blowing your way
Solo: |(G) |(D) |(C) |(G) | x 2
Down in (G)old Ama-(D)rillo there's a (C)light in the (G)window
Where a road weary (D)shadow drifts (C)into the (G)arms
Of a long distance (D)lover, then they (C)turn back the (G)covers
And dance the red-(D)ova 'til the (C)light of the dawn (C/G) (C)
(Chorus)
(G)Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, (C)tears on my (G)pillow
You never will (D) know (C)how much I (G)cried
Sweet Ama-(D)rillo, like the (C)wind in the (G)willow
Damn, this old (D)cowboy for (C)my foolish (G)pride
