This is how it goes. F**k everyone else who tells you different.
Also, in the intro, instrumentals, and Sweet Amarillos at the end for the last C and G 
chords, we hit the notes
C B A as pick up notes into the G chord instead of actually playing the C chord. Just 
like the lead fiddle part
does

Capo 1

Tabbed by: Whisky Trail Riders


Intro (Play Twice): G D Em C
                    G D C G

 Verse 1:
            G               D
Well the world's greatest wonder
      Em          C
from what I can tell
            G          D               Em          C
Is how a cowgirl like you could ever look my way
        G         D            Em            C
I was planted by glory with a half written story
G               D          Em     C
Songs spilling out off of every page

Chorus:
G          D
Sweet Amarillo
Em            C
Tears on my pillow
      G          D    Em          C
You never will know how much I cried
G           D
Sweet Amarillo
          Em            C
Like the wind in the willow
G                D       Em            C
Damn this old cowboy for my foolish pride


Instrumental: Play Intro


Verse 2:
        G        D    Em        C
So I drifted on down iron old range
G                 D                 Em            C
Across the wide Missouri, where the cool waters flow
        G        D        Em             C
When I got to Topeka, I looked up your name
    G             D           Em      C
It said you rode off with the last rodeo

Repeat Chorus
Instrumental: G D C G

            Bm
When the thunders a-rumbling
            C
And the tumbleweed's tumbling
           G
And the rodeo clown's off painting their face
         Bm
I'm gunning the throttle for the Llano Estacado
         C                     D
On the wild appaloosa, I'm blowing your way


Instrumental: Play Intro Twice


Verse 3:
         G        D             Em             C
Down in old Amarillo there's a light in the window
         G           D           Em        C
Where a road weary shadow drifts into the arms
      G              D
Of a long distance lover
           Em             C
Then they turn back the covers
      G         D               Em           C
And dance the redova 'til the light of the dawn


Repeat Chorus

G D Em C      G    D   C   G
Sweeeeet Amarillo
G D Em C      G    D   C   G
Sweeeeet Amarillo
