[Em] [Dm]
[G]
[F] [C]
[E] [Am]
[F] [C]
[F] [G]
[F] I will leave [Em]
behind all [E] of [Am] my clothes I [Dm] wore [D] when I [G] was with you
[F] All [C] I need's [E]
my railroad [Am] boots [F]
And [C] my leather [G]
jacket
As [F] I [B] say goodbye [E] to
[Am] Ruby's arms
[F]
[D] Although my heart [G] is breaking
[F] I will [D] still await [E] out through [Am] your blinds
[F] And soon [C] you will [G] be waking
Morning [C] light [A] has washed [Dm] your face
[G] And [C] everything is [Dm] turning blue now
[G]
Hold [C] on to [A] your
[Dm] pillowcase
[G] There's nothing [C] I [Dm] can do [G] now
As [Dm] I say
[C] goodbye [E] to
[Am] Ruby's arms
[F] You'll find [D]
another soldier
[G]
[F] And I swear [C] to God [E] by Christmas [Am]
time
There'll [F] be someone [C] else [G] to hold you
The only [C] thing [A] I'm [Dm] taking is
The [G] scarf [C] off of [Dm] the clothesline
[G]
Only [C] past [A] your chest [Dm] of drawers
[G] And [C] your broken [Dm]
wind [G] chimes
[F] As I say
[C] goodbye
[E] I'll say [Am] goodbye
[Dm] Say goodbye
To [G]
Ruby's [F] arms
[C]
[E] [Am]
[F] [C]
[D] [G]
[F] I will feel [C] my way [E] down the [Am] darkened hall
[F] [Dm] Out [C] into [D] the morning
[G] The [F]
[C] hobos and [E] the freight [Am] yards
Have [F] kept their [C] fires [D] burning
[G] [F] [B] Jesus
[C] Christ, [E] this [Am] goddamn rain
[F] Will someone [C]
put [E] me [Am] on a train
[F] I'll [G] never [C]
kiss [E] your lips [Am] again
[Dm] Or break your [G] heart
[F] As I say [C] goodbye
[E] I'll say [Am]
goodbye
[Dm] Say goodbye
To [G]
Ruby's [F] arms
[C] [E] [Am]
[F] [C]
