 LUCILLE

Time = 3/4

     |G        |       |             |

In a bar in To-ledo ac-ross from the depot on a

|             |            |D7    |     

bar stool she took off her ring

  |Am             |         |D7

I thought i'd get closer so I walked on over I

|Am          |D7       |G      |

sat down and asked her name

|        |              |           |

When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no

|             |            |G7      |C      |

quitter but I finally quit livin on dreams

    |D7        |            |         |

I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after I'm

|          |        |          |G

after what-ever the other life brings

|G     |        |           |         |

In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him I

|              |             |D7      |

thought how he looked out of place

|       |Am          |       |D7              |

He came to the woman who sat there be-side me he

|Am           |D7         |G       |

had a strange look on his face

    |              |            |

The big hands were calloused he looked like a

|              |        |G7           |C      |

mountain for a minute I thought I was dead

    |D7        |           |

But he started shaking his big heart was

|           |             |         |G  

breaking he turned to the woman and said

|G           |            |           |C    

You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille

     |           |              |           |G     |

with four hungry children and a crop in the field

|C            |         |                  |

I've had some bad times lived through some sad times but

|              |             |G

this time your hurting won't heal

|            |D7          |           |G      |

you picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille.

|G       |         |          |         |

After he left us I ordered more whisky I thought how she'd

|             |D7     |

made him look small

|        |Am           |             |D7       |

From the lights of the bar room to a rented ho-tel room we

|Am            |D7        |G      |

walked without talking at all

|         |          |             |

She was a beauty but when she came to me she

|                 |G7         |C      |

must have thought I'd lost my mind

|D7        |                 |          |

I could'nt hold her 'cos the words that told her kept

|           |          |G

coming back time after time

|G           |            |           |C    

You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille

     |           |              |           |G     |

with four hungry children and a crop in the field

|C            |         |                  |

I've had some bad times lived through some sad times but

|              |             |G

this time your hurting won't heal

|              |D7          |           |G      |
