RENO by Dottie West

(A)Along the wild Texas border, with no law and order
when Reno brought me to this (E)land.
he was after the wild ones, the mustangs, the shy ones,
and hoping that I'd under(A)stand
but there's too many long nights, a wife should have some rights
it seems that it's so plain to (D)see
Reno my husband tho (A)he loves the wild ones
much (E)more than he'll ever love (A)me

(A)he's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair
and a heart that is loving and (E)wild
he's too much afire with ambitious desire
to be tied to a wife and a (A)child
the horses are coming they soon will be running
and Reno will always be (D)gone
these things I'm knowing, the (A)rio is flowing
and (E)Reno I'm goin back (A)home

(E)Across the Mexican border my house all in order
I wait for a knock on my (B)door
The little one, the small one, the son of the tall one
so peacefully plays on the (E)floor
but what are these yearnings that always keep burning
I feel so deeply in(A)side
my love for Reno, my (E)flashing young gringo
has (B)suddenly vanquished my (E)pride

(A)he's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair
and a heart that is loving and (E)wild
he's so much afire and with too much desire
to be alone without a wife and a (A)child
the horses are coming they soon will be running
and Reno will quickly be (D)gone
there's no more waiting, no (A)more hesitating,
oh (E)Reno I'm coming back (A)home
wait (E)Reno, I'm c o m i n g b a c k (A)home
