Ruth chords by Michael Cera
Guitar chords with lyrics
Ruth Intro- G Em F C G C G G C G C Coming through the filter, sweet upon my lips Am Em Am Em the smoke mollifies the lung into which it rips G C G C In a sunlit tavern, in a corner booth Am Em Am Em sucking stale popcorn, there I met dear Ruth C G C Em She'd only just lost the baby, seven months and a week Am Em Am Em Drank a month of Seagrams, kissed me on the cheek
F D7
Never would've been my style
F D7
But I could spot it from a mile
F D7
That it would mean a world of good
F D7
If we got friendly for a while
Am G C G
Oh what a dear my dear girl might have been
G Em F C G C G
G C G C
In my nine dollar room, there was nothing on TV
Am Em Am Em
She asked if she could use my toothbrush, "It don't bother me.?
C G C Em
"I thank you for the company" she most solemnly said
Am Em Am Em
When I woke the next morning, she had fallen from the bed
F D7
Quite a sight I have to say
F D7
Where once had blossomed a bouquet
F D7
Now all but wilting like a leaf
F D7
In the ruthless light of day
Am G C G
O what a dear my dear girl might have been
G Em F C
Ruth, sweet girl, there's no place for you
