Little Ruby

Verse 
E 
I have a letter that you sent me in the mail 
E 
Signed with love, covered in a sweet smell 
E                                        G 
But the top left corner of the envelope, said 'Little Ruby' 
A 
And that was all you wrote 
A 
No way to find you 

No way to ring your little bell 
E 
What are you hidin', you're living in a big mess 
E 
I thought you were just a pretty little waitress 
E 
Maybe you're hidin' out from the po-lice 
G 
Maybe they've got you in a penitentiary 
A 
I wanna find you 
A 
I wanna make you come fast 
E                  C#m 
Sweet Little Ruby, why won't you love me? 
C                    D       A 
Why won't you let me see you again? 
E                  C#m 
Sweet Little Ruby, who are you really? 
C                    D       A 
Why won't you let me be your friend? 
E 
I thought you were just a late night bartender 
E 
A heavy scissor handed hack job hairdresser 
E 
Maybe a mermaid, livin' underwater 
G 
Or maybe worse, the preacher's daughter 
A                                            E 
How can I find you, I wanna' return to sender 
E                  C#m

Why won't you let me see you again?

Sweet Little Ruby, who are you really? 
C                    D       A 
Why won't you let me be your friend?
