              A                     D
Well when the wind don't blow in Amarillo
        A                            D
And the moon along to Gunnison don't rise
        G                        D
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love babe
                    G                D
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

♫ Chorus:

My mother thinks the road is long and lonely
       A                                       D
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
       G                                   D
Little darling thinks the road is soft and lovely
                      G                   D
I'm thankful that old road is a friend of mine
                  G    D
Well it's snowing on Raton
     A                                      D
Come morning I'll be through them hills and gone

♫ Verse :
     A                                D
I'll bid the years goodbye you cannot still them
    A                              D
You cannot turn the circles of the sun
    G                                D
You cannot count the miles until you feel them
                      G             D
And you cannot hold a lover that is gone

♫ Chorus:
       A                             D
Well tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
A                              D
Silently the blanket green and blue
        G                                 D
Oh, but I shall hear the silence they are keeping
                     G           D
I'll bring all their promises to you
             G    D
It's snowing on Raton
     A                                      D
Come morning I'll be through them hills and gone
        G    D
Snowing on Raton
     A                                      D
Come morning I'll be through them hills and gone
