G F C G C F C
[Verse 1]
C
The panhandle dust
F C
Is blowin' hard tonight
G
I can't even see across the road
C
I'm thankful for the wind
F C
Its a blessing in disguise
G F# F
It keeps me from seeing
G C
The lights of Amarillo
[Chorus]
F C
The lights of Amarillo shine so bright
G
Across the plains they became her guiding light
C
I can see them in the distance
F C
On a clear panhandle night
G F# F
She's out there somewhere
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
[Verse 2]
C
I can't really blame her
F C
For leaving me here
G
I couldn't leave papa all alone
C
She wanted those kind of things
F C
That I could never give her
G F# F
She went to find them
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
[Chorus]
F C
The lights of Amarillo shine so bright
G
Across the plains they became her guiding light
C
I can see them in the distance
F C
On a clear panhandle night
G F# F
She's out there somewhere
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
[Verse 3]
C
Each night I'm so worn out
F C
From workin' all day long
G
Hoeing those endless cotton rows
C
By the time I'm laying down
F C
Her dancing shoes are going on
G F# F
Going out with some cowboy
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
[Chorus]
F C
The lights of Amarillo shine so bright
G
Across the plains they became her guiding light
C
I can see them in the distance
F C
On a clear panhandle night
G F# F
She's out there somewhere
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
[Outro]
C G F# F
She's out there somewhere
G C
In the lights of Amarillo
