Ruby Mae by The Felice Brothers
Ruby Mae
For the accordion arpeggios, play Em as 333453… think of it as Dm moved up a whole step
And the chord played in the beginning is a Bbm
Capo 4
Bm D A D
Her name was Ruby Mae
Bm D A D
She danced the cabaret
Em A
Such a lovely
D A Em
Girl was she
G A D
That Ruby 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

version 2
Capo on 6th
(Am)Her name (C) was (G)ruby mae (C)
(Am)she danced (C) the (G)cabaret (C)
(Dm) such a (G)lovely (C) girl was she (Am)
(F)that (G) ruby (C) mae
Same progression throughout.
Little interlude near the end is a D chord shape but 1 string up. So ring finger is on
the g string instead of the b, middle finger on the b instead of the E and index finger
on the D instead of the G.
