[Intro 1]
[G][A][D]
[Bm]

[Verse 1]
[G]Yeah
[Asus4]Mm
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
Then there [G]she goes
She's sittin' real nice with her head
full of ad[A]vice from [D]friends[Bm]
And she walks [G]around
She tries to rearrange but everything
goes [Asus4]under her bed[D][Bm]
And it's [G]countless
She's got a jar full of change
saved up for [A]vaca[D]tion[Bm]
And she's [G]watchin'
She's watchin' her sons growin'
up just [A]like their [D]mom
And it's [Bm]hard for her

[Verse 3]
And I said [G]Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
You gotta start [Asus4]lifting your h[D]ead up,
head up, [Bm]head up
And I said [G]Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
I know it's hard but you [Asus4]gotta get out[D]ta bed,
outta bed, [Bm]outta bed

[Verse 4]
Yeah, she [G]don't know what to do
She's got [Gm]everything
and nothin' to [G]lose

[Verse 5]
She's got [G]a call from a guy just seein'
[Asus4]if she's al[D]right[Bm]
(Better not panic, better not panic,
better [G]not panic)
She's got a face full of tears held
back by the [A]strength of [D]five[Bm]
And she says,
[G]"Happiness ain't free
Everybody fights just like me
[Asus4]But I've give[D]n up

[Verse 6]
the ability to retreat"
[Bm]And I said Ruby,[G] Ruby, Ruby
You gotta start [Asus4]lifting your h[D]ead up,
head up, [Bm]head up
And I said [G]Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
I know it's hard but you gotta get [D]outta bed,
outta bed, [Bm]outta bed

[Verse 7]
Yeah, she [G]don't know what to do
She's got [Gm]everything and nothin'

Yeah, there's [Bb]time for us to figure it out
[F]I'm there,

[F]Don't be,
[C]don't be [G]scared
