Verse 1:
C majorC FF
Well I knew someday Ruby would be leavin'
G+G C majorC G+G
That she wasn't happy livin' quietly, quietly
C majorC FF
Cause she would get that bedroom look each mornin'
G+G C majorC
And I felt Ruby pull away from me, yeah
Verse 2:
C majorC FF
So go down town at nine o'clock this evenin'
G+G C majorC G+G
Walk under that red light then down the hall, down the hall
C majorC FF
Look for the highest-flyin' girl that's Ruby
G+G C majorC
And if you'll wait your turn you'll see Ruby Fall
CHORUS:
FF C majorC
Don't let her know that you even know me
G+G
She'll be tryin' to forget it all
C majorC FF
And don't tell me how it was tonight tomorrow
G+G C majorC
Cause I don't want to see Ruby fall

CHORUS:
FF C majorC
I didn't hold her back when she got restless

One man is not enough when she wants it all

Yeah I let her go when I saw what she wanted
G+G C majorC
Cause I don't care to see Ruby fall
