Lucille

[Verse 1] A In a bar in Toledo across from the depot on a E7 bar stool she took off her ring Bm E7 I thought I'd get closer so I walked on over, Bm E7 A I sat down and asked her name When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no A7 D quitter but I finally quit livin' on dreams E7 I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after I'm A after whatever the other life brings [Verse 2] A In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him E7 I thought how he looked out of place Bm E7 He came to the woman who sat there beside me, Bm E7 A he had a strange look on his face The big hands were calloused, he looked like a A7 D mountain, for a minute I thought I was dead E7 But he started shaking, his big heart was A breaking, he turned to the woman and said [Chorus] A D You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille A with four hungry children and a crop in the field D I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times, but A this time your hurting won't heal E7 A You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille [Verse 3] B After he left us I ordered more whisky, I thought how she'd F#7 made him look small C#m F#7 From the lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room, C#m F#7 B we walked without talking at all She was a beauty but when she came to me B7 E she must have thought I'd lost my mind F#7 I couldn't hold her 'cos the words that he told her kept B coming back time after time [Chorus] B E You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille B with four hungry children and a crop in the field E I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times, but B this time your hurting won't heal F#7 B You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
