Philadelphia Lawyer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Way out in Reno, Nev[D]ada,
where romance blooms and [G]fades,
there's a great Philadelphia law[C]yer
making [D]love to a Hollywood [G]maze.
Come love and we will [D]wander
out where the lights are [G]bright.
I'll win you a divorce from your [C]husband
And [D]we can get married to[G]night
Wild Bill was a gun [D]-toting cowboy
Ten notches were carved on his [G]gun
An[D]d a[G]ll the boys around R[C]eno Left
[D]Wild Bill's maiden alone
[G]One[D] nig[G]ht when he was returning[D]
from riding the range in the [G]cold
He dreamed of his Hollywood sweet[C]heart,
her [D]love was as lasting as [G]gold
As he drew near her [D]window,
two shadows he saw on the [G]shade
The great Philadelphia law[C]yer
was makin' [D]love to Bill's
Hollywood [G]maid[D][G][D]
Um, let's see, he saw the two women,
I forgot the words [G]to it,
so I'm just gonna talk,
[D]I'll [G]tell you the story about it
And [C]we can tell you about,
[D]while Bill went up there
and he saw those two [G]people on the shade,
you know
And the Philadelphia lawyer
[D]was tellin'
What happened?
Come love and [G]we will [D]wonder
Out where the lights are [G]bright
Oh, I forgot to say what
[C]The Philadelphia lawyer sai[D]d
to Beals Hollywood [G]made
Now I'm a [D]little bit nervous[G]
[D]Your hands are so [G]pretty and [D]lovely
Your form so rare and di[G]vine
[D]Come [G]go with me to the [C]city
We'll [D]leave this wild cowboy be[G]hind
Now back in old Philadelphi[D]a
Among the beautiful [G]pines
There's one less Philadelphia law[C]yer
In [G]old Philadelphi[D]a tonight
[G]Tha[D]nk [G]you very much.
Thank you.
Well that's alright.
Ain't nobody gonna crucify
you.
They're good
people here in Philadelphia.
We'd like to introduce to you
a group of fellows we're certainly proud of,
starting with Biff Adams on the drums.
Mr. Dennis Romack on the bass guitar.
And on my right,
Mr. Bobby Wayne on rhythm gui[F#]tar

[Verse 2]
is playing in harmony.
Over by far left,

[Verse 3]
Mr. Norman Hamlet on the steel guitar
Mr. Roy Nichols on

[Verse 4]
the lead electric guitar
They just released a instrumental album
not too long ago
and it's called Introducing the Strangers
The first song on the album
is called stealing corn
and here they are to do it.
It goes like this one two three four
