Intro: G5 D5 G5 D5 G5
         D5                  G5
When the wind don't blow in Amarillo,
        D5                             G5
And the moon along the Gunnison don't rise,
 C5                               G5
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love babe,
    G5               D5                G5
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes.

CHORUS:
        G5      C5  G5
It was snowin' on Raton, 
     D5               C5                      G5
Come morning, I'll be through them hills and gone.

D5 G5

D5                                  G5
Mother thinks the road is long and lonely,
       D5                                       G5
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine,
       C5                                   G5
And my darling thinks the road is soft and lovely,
    G5             D5                      G5
I'm thankful that old road's a friend of mine.

CHORUS:
        G5      C5  G5
It was snowin' on Raton, 
     D5               C5                      G5
Come morning,I'll be through them hills and gone.

D5 G5

D5                                 G5
Bid the years good-bye, you cant still them ,
    D5                               G5
No you cant turn the circles of the sun,
    C5                                  G5
And you cant count the miles until you feel them ,
    G5                    D5             G5
And you sure cant hold a lover that is gone.

CHORUS:
        G5      C5  G5
It was snowin' on Raton, 
     D5               C5                      G5
Come morning,I'll be through them hills and gone.

D5 G5 D5 G5 C5 G5 G5 D5 G5 (just like verse)

D5                              G5
Tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
D5                                    G5
The silent 'neath a blanket green and blue
C5 (let ring)                          G5
All I shall hear the silence they are keeping
    G5                    D5           G5    
And I'll bring all their promises to you.
