       D       D        B7     Em
I will leave behind all of my clothes

  D         D      Am7   D7
I wore when I was with you

D     D         B7       Em     
All I need's my railroad boots 

D      D       Am7    D7
And my leather jacket

     D       D      B7     Em
As I say goodbye to Ruby's Arms

  D         D        Am7     D7
Although my heart is breaking

       D     D        B7           Em
I will steal away out through your blinds

    D        D       Am7     D7
For soon you will be waking
----
    D       D         E           Am
The morning light has washed your face 

    D7      D              Am7      D7sus4    D7
And everything is turning blue      now

D       D       E      Am
Hold on to your pillow case

        D7      D     Am7           D7sus4    D7
There's nothing I can do            now
-----
     D       D      B7     Em
As I say goodbye to Ruby's Arms

       D     D      Am7      D7
You'll find another soldier

      D        D      B7        Em
And I swear to God by christmas time

            D       D       Am7       D7
There'll be someone else to hold you
---
    D    D         E      Am
The only thing I'm taking is 

    D7        D       Am7         D7sus4  D7
The scarf off of your clothes     line

     D     D         E        Am
I'll hurry past your chest of drawers

 D7      D      Am7              D7sus4   D7
And your broken wind             chimes
----
     D   D             B7  Em
As I say goodbye, I'll say goodbye

    Am7            D7sus4  D     D
Say goodbye     to Ruby's Arms
--- |B7 Em|D D|Am7 D7| ----
       D       D            B7       Em
I will feel my way down the darkened hall

D     D      Am7      D7
Out into the morning

    D      D      B7     Em
The Hoboes at the freightyards

     D          D     Am7      D7
Have kept their fires burning

D     D           B7       Em
Jesus Christ this God damn rain

     D       D      B7   Em
Will someone put me on a train

     D     D         B7   Em
I'll never kiss your lips again

   Am7        D7sus4   D7
Or break your heart

     D       D        B7  Em
As I say goodbye I'll say goodbye

    Am7        D7sus4 D     D
Say goodbye to Ruby's Arms
