_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Well, in North Carolina, old Baptist Hill,
Bill Mowy told me when he heard the school,
He'd move white light until the sun went down,
Then he'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around,
[E] Mighty, mighty [D] pleading, Baptist called him [A] sweet,
_ [E] Pshh, ooo, I like that.
[A] _ _ _ _ [D] Well, a cheap 18 and a revenue's [A] due,
Searching for a place where he may screw,
They [E] were looking, trying to book [D] it,
My pappy kept cooking,
[A] _
Pshh, ooo, I like that. _ _ _
Well, the city's liquor came and he said, I'm tough,
I think I want to taste that powerful stuff,
He took one slug and drank it all down,
[Gb] I heard him a-mawling as he hit the ground,
[E]
Mighty, mighty pleasing, [D] my pappy's called [A] squeezing,
_ [Gb] Pshh, ooo, I like [A] that.
_ _ _ [D] Well, a cheap 18 and a revenue's due,
[A] Searching for a place where he may screw,
[E] They were looking, trying to book it,
But [D] my pappy kept [A] cooking,
_ [E] Pshh, ooo, I like [A] that. _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ [D] That's all right, all right.
_ _ _ _ _ Well, you'd paint up your lips and [G] roll and curl your pinhead [A] hair, _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [D] Ruby, are you contemplating [G] going out [A] somewhere?
_ _ [Em] _
_ _ Well, [G] the shadows on the wall tell me [A] the sun is going down,
_ [Em] _ _
_ [D] Oh, _ _ _ [G] Ruby, _ _ _ don't take your love to town,
_ _ _ _ _ She's leaving now, cause I just heard the slamming [A] of the door,
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] The way I know I've heard it slam [G] 100 [A] times before, _ _
[Em] _ _ _ [G] And if I could move, I'd get my [A] gun, I'd put her in the ground,
_ _ [Em] _
Oh, _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G]
Ruby, _ don't take your [D] love to town,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I've heard the sound of my dear old [F] mama _ [C] crying, _ _
_ [D] And the sound of the train that took me _ [G] off to war,
_ _ [D] _
_ _ And [G] the awful sound of a thousand [F] bombs _ [C] exploding,
_ _ _ _ And I [A] wondered if I could take it _ _ [Am] _
anymore,
_ [D] _ _ [E] _ And [G] of earthquakes, _ storms, _ guns and wars,
[C] Lord, nothing has ever [A] hurt me more [G] than that lonely sound,
[D] The closing _ of the door,
[G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ I walk _ _ [Bb] alone, _ _ _ _ where was [Eb] me wonder,
_ _ _ It _ seems so _ strange _ _ that _ you are [F]
gone,
_ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] Till [F] you _ [Bb] _ _ return, [Bb] _ _
_ _ I'll stay [Eb] here to say dear,
_ _ _ _ I'll still [Bb] be true, _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Bb] and walk _ _ _ _ alone, _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] Come on in, _ _ if you'd like to paint the grandeur,
Of [Db] a lonely house,
_ Once this home, [Ab] sweet home, _ _ _ _
_ _ I have nothing _ _ here to sell you,
Just some things that I will tell you,
[Bb] Some things I know will kill you _ [Eb] to the bone,
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
[Ab] Oh, there _ sits the chair,
_ Where she brings the paper to me,
And sit [Db] down on my knee,
And whisper, _ [Ab] oh, I love you,
_ _ _ _ _ But [Eb] now she's gone forever, _ _
And this old house will [Db] never be the same,
_ Without [Eb] the love that we [Ab] once knew, _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ Step [Ab] right in, _ _ come on in,
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's all sin,
_ _ _ _ It's [D] all sin,
How much [Eb] I love you, _ _
_ _ Because _ [Bb] I know,
_ Our love could _ [F] never be, _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [Bb] It's all _ _ sin,
To keep _ this [Eb] memory of you,
_ _ _ When [Bb] silence proved,
_ _ [F] That you've forgotten [Bb] me, _ _ _
_ _ _ When silence proved,
_ _ [F] That you've forgotten [Bb] me,
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ When silence proved,
That you've forgotten _ me _ _ _
