Skip chords and lyrics
Verse 1
(D major) When first I came to Reno
I was kicked (C major) out, cussed out,
ego busted, (D major) shaggy, dusty, maladjusted
Look (F major) ing for (C major) an (G major) open door
to get in off the (C major) street
I (D major) wound up being pushed
into a (C major) businessman's convention
Luncheon torn (D major) and tattered,
briefcase battered
(F major) Got out just before (G major) they branded
B. Nick on my (C major) feet
It's a (F major) B -movie world (G major)
and the (C major) cast is on vaca (A minor) tion
On loca (D major) tion every day (G major)
in (D major) Reno, Funtown, (G major) U .S .A. (C major) (D major)
Escaping down an alley,
I was (C major) sick and chicken, panic stricken
Turned (D major) and seen a sports arena,
(F major) ran into a (G major) snarling mob of
roller derby fans (C major)
Recep (D major) tion there was less than warm
with (C major) knuckles, teeth and hairy arms
I (D major) fell into the first motel
and (F major) closed the door
and (G major) hid myself below the TV stand (C major)
It's a (F major) B -movie world (G major)
and the (C major) cast is on vaca (A minor) tion,
(D major) on location every day
(G major) In (D major) Reno, Funtown, (G major) U .S .A. (C major) (D major)
The maid came by for room inspection
Throw (C major) ing trays in my direction
San (D major) itized for my protection
I (F major) jumped out the (G major) window
Ran into a grocery store
(C major) I (D major) didn't have a shopping list
They thought (C major) I was a communist
Who flu (D major) oridated frozen fish
They (F major) put me in a chafing (G major) dish
And rolled me out the (C major) door
It's a (F major) beam of your world (G major)
and the (C major) cast is (G major) on vaca (A minor) tion,
(D major) on location, every day, (G major)
in (D major) Reno, Funtown, (G major) U .S .A. (C major) (D major)
I made it just in time
to get a (C major) ticket on a super jet,
as (D major) everyone was making bets
on (F major) just how long the (G major) plane would fly
before it took a dive. (C major)
Ren (D major) o has a law
forbidding bum (C major) s to look
at married women
Tuxes (D major) must be warned to swim in
If (F major) you're there with (G major) shaggy hair,
you may not leave alive (C major)
It's a (F major) B -movie world (G major)
and the (C major) cast is on vaca (A minor) tion
On loca (D major) tion every day
(G major) In (D major) Reno Funtown (G major) USA (C major) (A major)
In (D major) Reno, Fun Town, (G major) U .S .A.
