A7/5+ D6 Dm7 Fdimi C7
1. They say, Ruby, you're like a dream,
A7 F#mi7 Dm7 Bmi
Not always what you seem;
Bmi7 Gm7 G6 Gm+7 Gm6
And though my heart may break when I awake,
D+ D Em7/5- A7 A7/5+ D Gdimi A7
Let it be so, I only know, Ruby, it's you.
2. They say, Ruby, you're like a song,
You don't know right from wrong.
And in your eyes I see heartbreak for me;
D+ D Em7/5- A7 A7/5+ D
But from the start, who stole my heart? Ruby, it's you.
Gmi A7/5+ D
*: I hear your voice and I must come to you
Gmi A7/5+ A7 Em7/5- A7
I have no choice--what else can I do?
3. They say, Ruby, you're like a flame;
Into my life you came.
And though I should beware, still, I don't care.
D+ D Em7/5- A7 Gm7/5- D Gmi7 Em7/5- A7 D
You thrill me so, I only know, Ruby, it's you.
