Ruby Ring Man

[D]in my wet dog s[G]ky of blue
I could see you at the gate
in the red eye dawning you
where you always sit and wait
for the p[A]assing of the b[G]roken heart pa[D]rade

I would kiss the devil's cheek
to get this halo off of me
and in my twisted afterlife
you would be my family tree
and we'll both walk around with our tails between our legs

[G]we can rattle our [D]pans at the game m[G]y dear
but the ruby ring [D]man doesn't know w[G]e're here
I thought he knew m[D]y name
[A]strange he wouldn't even look my [D]way

(verse)
someone got their fingerprints on my
happy ending song
Christ and all his ruby rings told me
I should hang it up
because I lie so well I even start to buy it too

I lie so well I even start to buy it too

(chorus)
when the trumpet swings my ears start to bleed
I'm hanging upside down in a famous tree
I saw so many things
oh this color's new and beautiful to me
