Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You[A]'ve[D] painted up your lips
And rolled and [G]curled your tinted [A]hair[Em]
[D]Ruby are you contemplating
[G]Going out some[A]where
The [Em]shadow on the wall
Tells me the [A]sun is going [Em]down
Oh [D]Ruby[G][D][Em]
Don't [D]take your love to town

[Verse 2]
[D]
It [Em]wasn't me
That started that old [D]crazy Asian war
But [Em]I was proud to go
And do my [G]patriotic [A]chore
And [Em]yes, it's true that
I'm not the [A]man I used to be
[Em]Oh, [D]Ruby I[G] s[D]till[Em]
need some [D]company

[Verse 3]
[D]
Its hard to love a man
Whose legs are [G]bent and para[A]lyzed[Em]
And the [D]wants and the needs
of a woman your age
[G]Ruby I real[A]ize,
But it [Em]won't be long I've heard
them say un[A]til I not [Em]around
Oh [D]Ruby[G][D][Em]
Don't take [D]your love to town

[Verse 4]
[D]
She's leaving now cause
I just heard the [Em]slamming of [D]the door
The way I know I've heard it
[G]Some hundred [Em]times before
[D]And [D]if [Em]I could move I'd get my gun
And [A]put her in [Em]the ground
Oh [D]Ruby[G][D][Em]
Don't [D]take your love to town

[Verse 5]
[D]
Oh [G]Ruby [D]for [Em]God's
[D]sake turn around

[Outro 1]
[D]
