[C]  [F]  [G]

I was [C] ridin' on a [F] train to Ari-[C]-zona,  when a [C] very lovely lady sat next to [G] me. 
When [F] she got up to eat,  she asked if [C] I would hold her seat.  I was [G] more than happy to,  but now there's [D7] more I'd like to [G] do. 

[ CHORUS ]

When [C] she returned, she [F] said she was an [C] actress.  she showed me an album of pictures of her [G] opening ... on Broadway.
[F] She seemed as sweet as she could be,
But [C] I could clearly see, she was the [D7] kinda girl who stole men's hearts, and [G] wrecked 'em. 

[F] I wanna kiss her [G] but, she won't [C] let me.  I wanna [F] whisper sweet [G] nothin's in her [C] (r)ear.
I wanna [F] hold her [G] behind...
[C] closed doors and [Am] more.
[D7]  I wanna kiss her but, she won't [G] let me. 

Well, I'll [C] never forget that [F] train ride down to [C] Phoenix.  We [C] shared a seat, and we shared our [G] tales ... of woe.
But as my [F] heart tries to leave her behind,  Re-[C]-grets are all [Am] I find,
'Cause I'd [D7] hoped I'd get that girl
In the [G] end. 

[ CHORUS ] 
[F] I wanna kiss her [G] but,
[F] I wanna kiss her [G] but, 
[F] I wanna kiss her [G] but, 
She won't [C] let me.
