Capo 0-1        LUCILLE

Time = 3/4

     |A        |       |             | 
In a bar in To-ledo ac-ross 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 I 
|Bm          |E7       |A      |
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

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



|          |        |          |A
after what-ever the other life brings

|A     |        |           |         | 
In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him I 
|              |             |E7      |
thought how he looked out of place
|       |Bm          |       |E7              |
He came to the woman who sat there be-side me he 
|Bm           |E7         |A       |
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

|A           |            |           |D     
You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille 
     |           |              |           |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 Lu-cille.
 
|A       |         |          |         |
After he left us I ordered more whisky I thought how she'd 
|             |E7     |
made him look small
|        |Bm           |             |E7       |
From the lights of the bar room to a rented ho-tel room we 
|Bm            |E7        |A      |
walked without talking at all
|         |          |             |
She was a beauty but when she came to me she 
|                 |A7         |D      |
must have thought I'd lost my mind
|E7        |                 |          |
I could'nt hold her 'cos the words that told her kept 
|           |          |A
coming back time after time

|A           |            |           |D     
You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille 
     |           |              |           |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 Lu-cille.
