Ruby Dont Take Your Love To Town

(início)

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 N.C.                    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 N.C.                   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 N.C.                    C
Oh Ruby... don't take your love to town
N.C.
And she's leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door
N.C.
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
