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

Come morning, I'll be through them hills and gone.

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

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

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