x G Dm
You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
C F G
Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere?
Dm G Dm
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down
C F E Dm x C
Oh Ruby ... don't take your love to town
Dm C
It wasn't me who started that old crazy Asian war
Dm F G
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
Dm G
And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be
Dm C F E Dm x C
Oh Ruby... I still need some company
C F G Dm
It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed
C F G
And the wants and needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize
Dm G
But it won't be long, I've heard them say, until I'm not around
F C F E Dm x C
Oh Ruby... don't take your love to town
x
And she's leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door
x
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
Dm G Dm
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
C F E Dm x C
Oh Ruby... don't take your love to town
F E Dm x
Oh Ruby...for God's sake, turn around
Turn around
(Get back in here! You're not single anymore! Where the f**k do you think you're going?!?)
"x" means no chord, in case you were wondering ;)
