D


[Verse 1]

D           D/C
He gets up before the dawn,
D/B                 D/Bb             D
packs a lunch and a thermos full of coffee,
     D                  D/C
It's another day in the dusty haze,
     D/B              D/Bb            D
it's burnin rays are wearin down his body,
G
Diesel's worth the price of gold,
                                   D
it's the cheapest grain he's ever sold,
                      A
but he's still holdin on,


[Chorus]

         D                  A
He just takes the tractor another round,
    Em7             G              - D
and pulls the plow across the ground,
      A                Em7 - G
And sends up another prayer,
               D                   A
He says Lord I never complain, I never ask why,
Em7                   G           - D
Please don't let my dreams run dry,
  A           Em7              G      D
Underneath, underneath this Amarillo Sky,


[Verse 2]

D           D/C
That hail storm back in 83'
D/B                 D/Bb             D
sure did take a toll on his family,
        D                  D/C
He stayed strong and carried on,
     D/B              D/Bb            D
just like his dad and grand-dad did before him,
G
On his knees every night he prays,
                                     D
please let my crops and children grow,
                                A
Cause that's all he's ever known,


[Chorus]

         D                  A
He just takes the tractor another round,
    Em7             G              - D
and pulls the plow across the ground,
      A                Em7 - G
And sends up another prayer,
               D                   A
He says Lord I never complain, I never ask why,
Em7                   G            D
PLease don't let my dreams run dry,
  A           Em7              G      D   A 
  Em7  G
UNderneath, underneath this Amarillo Sk---y-----y---y


[Solo]

D - A - Em7 - G


[Chorus]

              D                 A
And he just takes the tractor another round,
Em7             G
another round, another round,
              D                 A
And he just takes the tractor another round,
Em7           G
another round,
           D                 A
He says I never complain, I never ask why,
Em7                   G           - D
PLease don't let my dreams run dry,
  A           Em7              G      D   A 
  Em7  G
UNderneath, underneath this Amarillo Sk---y-----y---y
D - A - Em7                G      D
        underneath this Amarillo Sky,
