Way out in Reno, [G]
Nevada, _ _ _ where romance blooms and [C] _ _ fades, a great _ Philadelphia _ [F] lawyer _ _ [G] was
in love with a Hollywood _ [C] maid.
_ _ Come love and we will [G] _ wander _ down where the lights [C] are _ bright.
_ I'll win you a divorce from [F] your husband _ _ and [G] we can get married _
[C] tonight.
_ _ Wild Bill was a gun-toting _ [G] cowboy, _ _ ten notches were carved in his [C]
gun, _ _ and all the boys [F] around
Reno _ left [G] Wild Bill's maiden _ [C] _
alone. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ One night when he was [G] returning _ _ from riding the reins in the [C] _ [Am] cold, _ he [C] dreamed of his Hollywood
[F] sweetheart.
_ _ Her [Gm] love was as lasting [C] as _ gold. _
As he drew near her [G] _
window, _ a shadow he saw on [C] the shade.
_ _ She was a great _ _ Philadelphia [F] lawyer, _ _ _ making [G] love to Bill's Hollywood [C] _ maid.
_ The night was as still as the [G] desert, _ _ the moon hanging high [C] overhead.
_ _ _ Bill listened a while to [F] the lawyer, _ _ he could [G] hear every word that [C] he said.
_ _ Your hands are so pretty [G] and lovely, _ _ your form so rare and [C] divine. _
_ _ Come go with me to the [F] city, _ _ and [G] leave this wild cowboy [C] _ behind.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Right back in old [G] _ Pennsylvania, _ _ _ among those _ beautiful [C] _ _ pines.
There's one less _ Philadelphia _ [F] lawyer _ _ in [G] old _ Philadelphia _ tonight. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
