a whole step
And the chord played in the beginning is a Bbm
[Bm]Her [D]name was [A]Ruby [D]Mae
[Bm]She [D]danced the [A][D]cabaret
[Em]Such a [A]lovely
[D]Girl [A]was [Em]she
[G]That [A]Ruby [D]Mae
In the open window breeze
She pulled her stockings above her knees
Such a lovely girl was she
That Ruby Mae
Solo, same chords
On a lonely winter night
I followed her under Christmas lights
So low down was I
To Ruby Mae
Solo, same chords
In the bitter morning air
I hid her body there
In the heart of old Times Square
So she’d not lose her way
Her name was Ruby Mae
She danced the cabaret
Such a lovely girl was she...
[G] [A] [D]
