## Kenny Rogers, Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town, 1969 ##
VERSE 1:
[C# open] You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted
[G#] hair
[D#m] [C#] Ruby, are you contemplating
[F#] going out some-
[G#]-where
The
[D#m] shadow on the wall tells me, the
[C#] sun is
[G#] going down
[D#m] Oh,
[C#] Ru-
[F#]-by,
[/F] [D#m] [N.C.] don't take your love to
[C#] town
VERSE 2:
It
[D#m] wasn't me that started that old
[C#] crazy Asian war
But
[D#m] I was proud to go and do my
[F#] patriotic
[G#] chore
And
[D#m] yes, it's true that I am not the
[C#] man I used to
[G#] be
[D#m] Oh,
[C#] Ru-
[F#]-by,
[/F] [D#m] [N.C.] I still need some company
[C#]
## Willie Nelson, On The Road Again, 1980 ##
VERSE 1:
[D#] On the road again, just can't wait to get on the
[Gm] road again
I find love is making
[Fm] music with my friends
And
[G#] I can't wait to get
[A#] on the road
[D#] again
VERSE 2:
[D#] On the road again, going places that I've
[Gm] never been
Seeing things that I may
[Fm] never see again
And
[G#] I can't wait to get
[A#] on the road
[D#] again
BRIDGE:
[D#] On the
[G#] road again, like a band of gypsies we go down
[D#] highway
We're the
[G#] best of friends, insisting that the world keep turning
[D#] our way
And
[A#] our way is...
VERSE 3:
[D#] On the road again, just can't wait to get on the
[Gm] road again
I find love is making
[Fm] music with my friends
And
[G#] I can't wait to get
[A#] on the road
[D#] again
## Waylon Jennings, Good Hearted Woman, 1972 ##
VERSE 1:
A
[F] long time forgotten, are dreams that just fell by the
[A#] way
The
[C7] good life he promised, ain't what she's living to-
[F]-day
But she
[F] never complains of the bad times, or bad things he's
[A#] done, Lord
She just
[C7] talks about the good times they've had, and all the good times to
[F] come
CHORUS 1:
She's a
[F] good-hearted woman, in love with a good timin'
[A#] man
She
[C7] loves him in spite of his ways, that she don't under-
[F]-stand
Through
[F] teardrops and laughter, they'll pass through this world hand in
[A#] hand
A
[C7] good-hearted woman, loving her good timin'
[F] man
OUTRO:
A
[C7] good-hearted woman, loving her good timin'
[F] man
