Key: D
Introduction:
D
She played tamourine with a silver jingle
G D
And she must have known the words to at least a million tunes
D Bm
but the one most requested by the man she knew as Cowboy
D Bm A D
was the late night benediction at the Y'all come back saloon
In a voice soft and trembling, she'd sing her song to cowboy
G D
Faded love and faded memories
G D
How they linger in her mind
G D Bm
Miles and years played the cowboy like an old melody
E7 A
out of tune and out of time
Every night in the shadows thinking back on Amarillo
