Is this the way to Amarillo
A                     E
every night I've been hugging my pillow

Sha la la lala lalala    and Marie who waits for me

There's a church bell ringing
hear the song of joy that it's singing
for the sweet Marie and the guy who's coming to see her
just beyond the highway, there's an open plain
and it keeps me going through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo
and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la lala lalala    Sha la la lala lalala  
Sha la la lala lalala    and Marie who waits for me
