Start Jamming...
You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your [G] tinted hair.
[Dm]
[C] Ruby, are you [F] contemplating going out [G] somewhere?
[Dm] The shadow on the wall [G] tells me the sun is going down.
[Dm]
[C] Oh, [F] Ruby.
[C]
[Dm] [C] Don't take your love to town.
[Dm] It wasn't me who started [C] that old crazy Asian war.
[F] But I was proud to go and do my [G] patriotic chore.
[Dm] And yes, it's true that I'm not [G] the man I used to be.
[Dm] [C] Oh, [F] Ruby.
[Am] [Dm]
[C] I still need some company.
It's hard to love a man whose [F] legs are bent and [G] paralyzed.
[Dm] [C] And it won't send the needs of a woman [F] your age, Ruby, [G] I realize.
[Dm] But it won't be long, I've heard them [G] say, until I'm not around.
[C] [Dm]
[C] Oh, [F] Ruby.
[Am] [Dm] [C] Don't take your love to town.
And she's [N] leaving now, cause I just heard the slamming of the door.
The way I know I've heard it slam 100 times before.
[G]
[Dm] And if I could move, I'd get [G] my gun and put her in the ground.
[Dm]
[C] Oh, Ruby.
[F]
[C] [Dm] [C] Don't take your love to town.
Oh, [F] Ruby.
[C]
[Dm] [A#m] For God's sakes.
[C#] Turn around.
Turn around.
[N]
[G#] Get back in your
