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
It keeps me from seeing
C
The lights of Amarillo
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
Shes out there somewhere
C
In the lights of amarillo
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
She went to find them
C
In the lights of amarillo
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
Going out with some cowboy
C
In the lights of amarillo
