[Bb]My baby never was a cheatin' kind
But It w[F7]asn't cause the ladies didn't try

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

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

Oh, he'd still be mine today,

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