Lucille
Ton : GEnglish
(Rythme 3/4)
GIn a bar in Toledo across from the depot
On a barstool she took off her D7ring
I Amthought I'd get closer so I D7walked on over
I Amsat down and D7asked her Gname
When the drink finally hit her she said I'm no quitter
But I finally quit G7living on Cdreams
I'm D7hungry for laughter and here ever after
I'm after whatever the other life Gbrings
GIn the mirror I saw him I closely watch him
I thought how he looked out of D7place
He came Amto the woman who sat D7there beside me
He Amhad a strange D7look on his Gface
The big hands are callous he looked like a mountain
For a minute I G7thought I was Cdead
But D7he started shaking his big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and Gsaid
You picked the fine time to leave me LuCcille
Four hungry children and a crop in the Gfield
CI've had some bad time live through some sad times
But this time your hurting wouldn't Gheal
You picked a D7fine time to leave me LuCcille
After he left us I ordered more whiskey
I thought how he made him look D7small
From Amlights of the bar room to a D7rented hotel room
We walked without talking at Gall
She was a beauty but when she came to me
She must have thought G7I'd lost my Cmind
D7I couldn't hold her the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after Gtime
