Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town

Credit where it's due...to Larry's tab of Kenny Roger's version. Some of the chords are
slightly different, and some of the lyrics are different, but much is still the same.
[Intro]
C
CYou've painted up your lips and rolled and Fcurled your tinted haiGr
CHey Ruby are you contemplating Fgoin' out somGsus4ewhere
DmShadows on the wall tells me the Gsun is goin' down
Oh RuCby.F...Dm....don't take your love to Ctown
It wDmasn't me who started that old cCrazy Asian war
And DmI was free to go and do my pFatriotic cGsus4hore
And DmRuby I know I'm not the mGan I used to be
Oh RCuby.F...Dm....I still need some companCy
CIt's hard to love a man who's legs are Fbent and paralyzGed
And the Cwants and needs of a woman your age, FRuby I rGsus4ealize
And it Dmwon't be long I've heard 'em say uGntil I'm not around
Oh RCuby.F...Dm...don't take your love to toCwn
CShe's leavin' now, I just heard the Fslammin' of theG door
The Cway I know I've heard it slam a Fhundred timesG before
And if DmI could move I'd get my gun andG lay her in the ground
Oh RCuby.F...Dm....don't take your love to tCown
Oh RCuby.F...Dm....don't take your love to tCown, Dm
For God's sakes turn aroCund, don't tDmake your love to tCown
