TAKE MY RING OFF OF YOUR FINGER
Recorded by Carl Smith
Words and music by Benny Joy and Hugh X. Lewis

CHORUS
CAPO: 1st FRET  KEY: Eb  PLAY: D
[D] Take my ring off of your [G] finger
[A7] When you're out runnin' 'round on [D] me
Darlin' tell them you're not [G] married
But [A7] don't ask me to set you [D] free.

It hurts to share you with those others
But it's better than no love at all
When you're not cheat'n', you're not happy
So go on out and have yourself a ball.

CHORUS

I know I should walk right out and leave you
Any other fool would have been gone
Ev'ry night - you're unfaithful
But I'll be wait'n' here when you come home.

CHORUS
