Ruby's Arms (Tom Waits)

D D B7 Em
I will leave behind all of my clothes
D D Am7 D7
I wore when I was with you
D D B7 Em
All I need's my railroad boots
D D Am7 D7
And my leather jacket
D D B7 Em
As I say goodbye to Ruby's Arms
D D Am7 D7
Although my heart is breaking
D D B7 Em
I will steal away out through your blinds
D D Am7 D7
For soon you will be waking
----
D D E Am
The morning light has washed your face
D7 D Am7 D7sus4 D7
And everything is turning blue now
D D E Am
Hold on to your pillow case
D7 D Am7 D7sus4 D7
There's nothing I can do now
-----
D D B7 Em
As I say goodbye to Ruby's Arms
D D Am7 D7
You'll find another soldier
D D B7 Em
And I swear to God by christmas time
D D Am7 D7
There'll be someone else to hold you
---
D D E Am
The only thing I'm taking is
D7 D Am7 D7sus4 D7
The scarf off of your clothes line
D D E Am
I'll hurry past your chest of drawers
D7 D Am7 D7sus4 D7
And your broken wind chimes
----
D D B7 Em
As I say goodbye, I'll say goodbye
Am7 D7sus4 D D
Say goodbye to Ruby's Arms

D D B7 Em
I will feel my way down the darkened hall
D D Am7 D7
Out into the morning
D D B7 Em
The Hoboes at the freightyards
D D Am7 D7
Have kept their fires burning
D D B7 Em
Jesus Christ this God damn rain
D D B7 Em
Will someone put me on a train
D D B7 Em
I'll never kiss your lips again
Am7 D7sus4 D7
Or break your heart
D D B7 Em
As I say goodbye I'll say goodbye
Am7 D7sus4 D D
Say goodbye to Ruby's Arms
