    • Verse 1

    You've 
    painted 
    up 
    your 
    lips 

    and 
    rolled 
    and 
    curled 
    your 
    tinted 
    hair 

    Ruby 
    are 
    you 
    contemplating 

    going 
    out 
    some
    where? 

    The 
    shadows 
    on 
    the 
    wall 

    tell 
    me 
    the 
    sun 
    is 
    going 
    down 

    Oh 
    Ru
    by, 

    don't 
    take 
    your 
    love 
    to 
    town 

    Verse 2
    It 
    wasn't 
    me 
    that 
    started 

    that 
    old 
    crazy 
    Asian 
    war 

    But 
    I 
    was 
    proud 
    to 
    go 

    and 
    do 
    my 
    patriotic 
    chore 

    And 
    yes, 
    it's 
    true 

    that 
    I'm 
    not 
    the 
    man 
    I 
    used 
    to 
    be 

    Oh 
    Ru
    by, 

    I 
    still 
    need 
    some 
    compa
    ny 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    hard 
    to 
    love 
    a 
    man 

    whose 
    legs 
    are 
    bent 
    and 
    para
    lized 

    And 
    the 
    wants 
    and 
    needs 

    of 
    a 
    woman 
    your 
    age 

    Ruby, 
    I 
    rea
    lize 

    But 
    it 
    won't 
    be 
    long, 
    I've 
    heard 
    them 
    say, 

    un
    til 
    I'm 
    not 
    around 

    Oh 
    Ru
    by, 

    don't 
    take 
    your 
    love 
    to 
    town 

    Verse 4
    She's 
    leaving 
    now 
    cause 
    I 
    just 
    heard 

    the 
    slamming 
    of 
    the 
    door 

    The 
    way 
    I 
    know 
    I 
    heard 
    its 
    slams 

    one 
    hundred 
    times 
    before 

    And 
    if 
    I 
    could 
    move, 
    I'd 
    get 
    my 
    gun 

    and 
    put 
    her 
    in 
    the 
    ground 

    Oh 
    Ru
    by, 

    don't 
    take 
    your 
    love 
    to 
    town 

    Outro 1
    Oh 
    Ru
    by, 

    for 
    God's 
    sake, 
    turn 
    around

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
