Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town
Kenny Rogers
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
       N.C.                                            G       F
You've painted up your lips an' rolled and curled your tinted hair.
C                           F             G
Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere?
    Dm                              C                 F
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down
   C        F           (Stop)

[Verse 2]
 
   Dm                              C
It wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war
    Dm                          F         G
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
    Dm                                            C    F
And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be...
   C        F           (Stop)

                  C
I still need some company
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C                                      G              C
It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed
        C                                        F         G
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize
       Dm                            C                         F
But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around
   C        F           (Stop)

[Verse 4]
 
N.C.
She's leavin' now 'cause I heard the slammin' of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
    Dm                                C                       F
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
   C        F           (Stop)

For God sakes turn around!
