Verse 1
You've painted up your lips
and rolled and curled your tinted hair (G major) (D minor)
(C major) Ruby are you contemplating
(F major) going out some (G major) where?
The (D minor) shadows on the wall
tell me the (G major) sun is going down
(D minor) Oh (C major) Ru (F major) by, (C major) (D minor)
don't take your love to (C major) town
Verse 2
It (D minor) wasn't me that started
that old (C major) crazy Asian war
But (D minor) I was proud to go
and do my (F major) patriotic (G major) chore
And (D minor) yes, it's true
that I'm not the (G major) man I used to be
(D minor) Oh (C major) Ru (F major) by, (C major) (D minor)
I still need some company (C major)

Verse 3
It's (C major) hard to love a man
whose legs are (F major) bent and paralized (G major) (D minor)
And the (C major) wants and needs
of a woman your age
(F major) Ruby, I realize (G major)
But it (D minor) won't be long, I've heard them say,
un (G major) til I'm not around
(D minor) Oh (C major) Ru (F major) by, (C major) (D minor)
don't take your love to (C major) 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 (D minor) I could move, I'd get my gun
and (G major) put her in the ground
(D minor) Oh (C major) Ru (F major) by, (C major) (D minor)
don't take your love to (C major) town
Outro 1
Oh (C major) Ru (F major) by, (C major) (D minor)
for God's sake, turn around
