Verse 1:
DWhen the sun hits it right on Gits way down
DIt was the prettiest thing in our little tAown.
DEvery hour I'd sneak a glance over at the pGlastic frame
and cracked glass that holds the pDicture of Ruby's tAwo sad dDaughters.
DLast mill closed when I was nine and DaGddy left and Momma cried again,
DI spent my nights cleaning Ruby's flAoors, jDust another cafe
on a wGind swept highway the faDrmers bitched, we're no good at foAotball anymore.
Chorus 1:
GIn this land that knows no lDaughter
BmIn this land that holds no wAater,
Dwe were all in love with RGuby's tAwo sad dDaughters.G D A
Verse 2:
DOne went way out west, Gone went way wrong,
DOne left at seventeen and the oAther couldn't wait that long.
DNeither went anywhere with me, not to the gGames or the Dairy Queen.
DBoth split with the first boy who lied sAweet and looked vaguely mean.
Chorus 2:
GIn this land that knows no lDaughter
BmIn this land that holds no Awater,
DWe were all in love with RGuby's tAwo sad daDughters.
Bridge:
BmWhy so pretty and fAorlorn? BmWhy so permanently bAlue?
DI guess ours wasn't much of a kGingdAom to rDule.G D A
Verse 3:
DNow when the sun hits Gits right on its way down,
DIt's still the prettiest thing in our little tAown.
DEvery hour I sneak a glance over at the pGlastic frame
and I fix the glass that holds the picture of Ruby's tAwo sad daDughters.
Why did hope leave town with RGuby's tAwo sad dDaughters?
