Ruby's Two Sad Daughters Pat Green
Verse 1:
[D]When the sun hits it right on [G]its way down
[D]It was the prettiest thing in our little t[A]own.
[D]Every hour I'd sneak a glance over at the p[G]lastic frame
and cracked glass that holds the p[D]icture of Ruby's t[A]wo sad d[D]aughters.
[D]Last mill closed when I was nine and Da[G]ddy left and Momma cried again,
[D]I spent my nights cleaning Ruby's fl[A]oors, j[D]ust another cafe
on a w[G]ind swept highway the fa[D]rmers bitched, we're no good at fo[A]otball anymore.
Chorus 1:
[G]In this land that knows no l[D]aughter
[Bm]In this land that holds no w[A]ater,
[D]we were all in love with R[G]uby's t[A]wo sad d[D]aughters.[G] [D] [A]
Verse 2:
[D]One went way out west, [G]one went way wrong,
[D]One left at seventeen and the o[A]ther couldn't wait that long.
[D]Neither went anywhere with me, not to the g[G]ames or the Dairy Queen.
[D]Both split with the first boy who lied s[A]weet and looked vaguely mean.
Chorus 2:
[G]In this land that knows no l[D]aughter
[Bm]In this land that hold no w[A]ater,
[D]We were all in love with R[G]uby's t[A]wo sad da[D]ughters.
Bridge:
[Bm]Why so pretty and f[A]orlorn? [Bm]Why so permanently b[A]lue?
[D]I guess ours wasn't much of a k[G]ingd[A]om to r[D]ule.[G] [D] [A]
Verse 3:
[D]Now when the sun hits [G]its right on its way down,
[D]It's still the prettiest thing in our little t[A]own.
[D]Every hour I sneak a glance over at the p[G]lastic frame
and I fix the glass that holds the picture of Ruby's t[A]wo sad da[D]ughters.
Why did hope leave town with R[G]uby's t[A]wo sad d[D]aughters?
Repeat D G until end of song.
