[Intro]
C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C                                            F                  C
You have painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
                           F             G
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere
    F                               G
The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is goin' down
   C F          G                 C     F  G
Oh Ruby   don't take your love to town
 
 
[Verse 2]
     C                                 F            G7
It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralized
        C                                       F         G
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age Ruby I realize
       F                                   G
But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around
   C F          G                 C
Oh Ruby   don't take your love to town
 
 
[Bridge]
       Dm                              F           C
For it wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war
    Dm                          F         G
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chores
   F                            G                    C F          G              C   D
Oh I know Ruby that I'm not the man I used to be but Ruby I still need your company
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                                               G               A
And she's leaving now cause I've just heard the slamming of the door
    D                                 G               A
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
   G                             A
If I could move I get my gun and put her in the ground
   D G        A                 D    G
Oh Ruby don't take your love to town
      A                 D
Don't take your love to town
