Amarillo Highway(Chords)

	        
verse 1 
           G 
Well I'm a high straight in Plainview 
G 
A side bet in Idalou 
      G                 C 
And a fresh deck in new deal 
     D 
Yeah some call me high hand 
    D 
And some call me low hand 
        D                      G 
But I'm holdin' what I am, the wheel 


           G 
Yeah I'm a panhandlin' manhandlin' 
G                                     C 
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy 
      D 
And I ain't got no blood veins I just 
D                                          G 
I got them four lanes of hard Amarillo Highway 


verse 2 
       G 
Well I don't wear no Stetson 
        G 
But I'm willin' to bet son 
     G                  C 
That I'm big a Texan as you are 
               D 
Yeah there's a girl in her bare feet 
 D 
Asleep on my back seat 
        D                         G 
And the trunk's full of Pearl and Lone Star 

 
            G 
Cause I'm a panhandlin' manhandlin' 
G                                     C 
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy 
      D 
And I ain't got no blood veins I just 
D                                    G 
Got them four lanes of hard Amarillo Highway 


Solo:  G-G-C-D D-D-G-G 

verse 3 
          G 
I'm gonna hop outta bed pop a pill in my head 
      G 
Gonna bust a hub for the golden spread 
     C 
Under blue sky 
      D 
Gonna stuff my hide behind some power glide 
             D 
And get some southern fried back in 
   G 
My hide 


            G 
Cause I'm a panhandlin' manhandlin' 
G                                     C 
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy 
         D 
Yeah the closest I'll ever get to heaven 
   D 
Is speedin' up old eighty-seven 
                        G 
That hard ass, Amarillo Highway 
          G 
Hey I'm a panhandlin' manhandlin' 
G                                     C 
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy
