{c: }
[G] In a bar in Toledo across from the depot
On a barstool she took off her [D7] ring
I [Am] thought I’d get closer so [D7] I walked on over
I [Am] sat down and [D7] asked her her [G] name
{c: }
[G] When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no quitter
But I finally quit [G7] living on [C] dreams
I'm [D7] hungry for laughter and here ever after
I'm after whatever the other life [G] brings
{c: }
[G] In the mirror I saw him, I closely watched him
I thought how he looked out of [D7] place
He came [Am] to the woman who sat [D7] there beside me
He [Am] had a strange [D7] look on his [G] face
{c: }
[G] The big hands were calloused, he looked like a mountain
For a minute I [G7] thought I was [C] dead
But [D7] he started shaking his big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and [G] said
{c: }
[G] You picked a fine time to leave me Lu[C]cille
With four hungry children and a crop in the [G] field
[C] I’ve had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting wouldn’t [G] heal
You picked a [D7] fine time to leave me Lu[G]cille
{c: }
[G] After he left us I ordered more whiskey
I thought how she'd made him look [D7] small
From the [Am] lights of the bar room to a [D7] rented hotel room
We walked without talking at [G] all
{c: }
[G] She was a beauty but when she came to me
She must have thought [G7] I’d lost my [C] mind
[D7] I couldn’t hold her, the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after [G] time
{c: }
[G] You picked a fine time to leave me Lu[C]cille
With four hungry children and a crop in the [G] field
[C] I’ve had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting wouldn’t [G] heal
You picked a [D7] fine time to leave me Lu[G]cille
