Bb    
My baby never was that cheatin' kind
                                       F7
But it wasn't cause the ladies  didn't try

Now ev'ry where we go, they're walkin' 'round him slow,
                           Bb
Givin' him a flutter and a sigh
Bb
Now I got him past that redhead in Atlanta
                                       Bb7   Eb
Lord, I walked all over that blackeyed cajun queen.
     F7
But outside of Amarillo, he found his thrill I tell you
                                      Bb
I lost him to a jukebox and a pinball machine
Eb                                    Bb
Oh, Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
Eb                  C7                  F7
Oh, Amarillo now he won't come home no more.
Eb                             Bb
You done played a trick on me, hooked him in the first degree,
F7
Put in another quarter, push Dolly and then Porter,
                                                  Bb
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine.

Solo

Bb
If we only hadn't stopped in there for coffee
                                        F7
If someone hadn't played  the window up above

Oh, he'd still be mine today,

But he heard those fiddles play,
                                      Bb
One look and then I knew this must be love.
Bb
Oh, that pinball machines in the corner,
                                             Eb
But he saw the lights and he had to hear 'em ring.
       F7
And he never was the same after he won his first free game,
F                                           Bb
oh, I lost him to the jukebox and a pinball machine.
Eb                                    Bb
Oh, Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
Eb                  C7                  F7
Oh, Amarillo now he won't come home no more.
Eb                             Bb
You done played a trick on me, hooked him in the first degree,
F7
Put in another quarter, push Dolly and then Porter,
                                                  Bb
While he racks up fifty thousand on the pinball machine.
Eb                                    Bb
Oh, Amarillo what'd you want my baby for
Eb                  C7                  F7
Oh, Amarillo now he won't come home no more.
Eb                             Bb
You done played a trick on me, hooked him in the first degree,
F7

                                                  Bb
