Does Rails offer any way to exit early or "return" from a view that is being rendered?

For example, I have a view structured as follows:

<h1>Your records summary</h1>

<% if @current_user.has_records? %>
  <p>You don't have any records.</p>
<% else %>
  ... long block of view emission code here ...
<% end %>

In non-erb code, I'd just return from that if condition, and wouldn't need to put that long block inside an else. It would look like:

<h1>Your records summary</h1>

<% if @current_user.has_records? %>
  <p>You don't have any records.</p>
  <% return (or something) %>
<% end %>
... long block of view emission code here ...

Is there a way to do something like that in the erb?

EDIT: To be clear, I'm not asking for alternate approaches, such as have been suggested. I'm not a Rails noob. I really just want to know whether Ruby provides a mechanism for what I suggested or not.
