(Verso 1) 
          Em 
I've been foolish and blind, 
                       Am 
Time after time, girl, I've let you down. 
        Em 
And I'm losing my mind, 
                        Am 
Tryin' to find a way to show you now, 
                   Em    Am 
That you are all I want. 
              Em    Am 
You are all I want. 

(Verso 2) 
          Em 
Girl, I'm down on my knees, 
                                   Am 
Begging you please, I need another chance. 
               Em 
But you're not looking at me, 
Are you hearing my plea? 
          Am 
Won't you take my hand? 


             G 
'Cause Ruby, you're all that I want,  
                Am 
My heart and my treasure. 
             G 
Ruby, you're all that I need, 
            Am 
For now and forever. 
              Em   Am 
You are all I want. 
              Em   Am 
You are all I want. 

(Verso 3) 
            Em 
I know that talk is cheap, 
And words seem weak, 
                 Am 
Coming from this broken man. 
       Em 
Still, I will speak, 'cause I can't sleep, 
                Am 
Until you truly understand. 

 
             G 
'Cause Ruby, you're all that I want,  
                Am 
My heart and my treasure. 
             G 
Ruby, you're all that I need, 
            Am 
For now and forever. 

(Bridge) 
           Bm 
Don't want diamonds or gold, 
          C              Em 
When I've got my ruby to hold. 
                D 
You know I'm in ecstasy, 
       Bm       C 
I cant ever get enough. 
           Bm 
Don't want platinum or pearls, 
          C                     Em 
I'd trade all the jewels in the world, 
                D 
Just to have you next to me. 
        Em                C 
I can't live Without your love, no... 

 
             G 
'Cause Ruby, you're all that I want,  
                Am 
My heart and my treasure. 
             G 
Ruby, you're all that I need, 
            Am 
For now and forever. (x3) 

              Em 
You are all I want.
