[G]
Oh Ruby Jean, last night I dreamed I was running
Somewhere beyond the stars, [Am] I called out to you
And you [D] answered softly, [G]
you [C] are the [G] children's [Gm] eyes
[D]
And the [G] days gone by
Oh Ruby Jean, [D]
it doesn't seem like [G] a long, long time
Since we [D] were born again, into [Am] the dazzling light
[D] Uniting black and white, you [C] are the rich [G] brown [Gm] [A] bird
[D] And I'm the flowers that grow
We'll [G] have children of [D] the kingdom
They [G] won't be torn by war, nor will [C] they kill [F] or hate
[D#] Or hesitate [D] to love [G] justice
Oh [D]
[G] Billie [F#m] Lee, [D] it's destiny [G] that we meet again
Here on [D] this earthly plane, I'll see all [Am] the world with you
But you'll have [D] to help me through
You guard [C] the [G] straight and narrow [Gm] path, [D]
I'm the wayfarer
Oh Billie Lee, we shall be free in [G] the years to come
To help build [D] the promised land
We'll go where [Am] the day springs run, forever [D] and live as one
He [C] is the object [G] of our [Gm] longing, [A]
[D] we're his creation
[F#m] You'll [G] have children of [D] the [A] kingdom
[D] They won't [G] be torn by war, nor will [C] they kill or hate
[D#] Or hesitate [D] to love justice
