Ruby 

       D                                                      A7   Em
You’ve painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
D                          G             A7
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere
    Em                              A7                Em
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down
   D G  Em // stop                              D
Oh Ruby . . . . . . . . don’t take your love to town

   Em                             D
It wasn’t me who started that old crazy asian war
    Em                          G         A7
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
    Em                             A7               Em
And yes it’s true that I’m not the man I used to be
   D G  Em // stop                             D
Oh Ruby . . . . . . . . I still need some company

                                                    A7    Em
It’s hard to love a man who’s legs are bent and paralized
        D                                        G         A7
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realise
       Em                                   A7                  Em
But it won’t be long I’ve heard them say, untill I’m not around
   D G  Em // stop                              D
Oh Ruby . . . . . . . . don’t take your love to town

                                                              A7   Em
She’s leaving now, ‘cause I’ve just heard the slammin’ of the door
    D                                 G               A7
The way I know I’ve heard it slam one hundred times before
   Em                              A7                    Em
