Tom: A5

      |  A5         |         |               |  
In a bar in To-ledo ac-ross from the depot on a 
 |               |              |  E5     |       
bar stool she took off her ring
   |  B5              |           |  E5
I thought i'd get closer so I walked on over I 
 |  B5           |  E5        |  A5       | 
sat down and asked her name
 |          |                |             | 
When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no 
 |               |              |  A5       |  D5       | 
quitter but I finally quit livin on dreams
     |  E5         |              |           | 
I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after I'm
 |            |          |            |  A5
after what-ever the other life brings
 |  A5      |          |             |           |  
In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him I 
 |                |               |  E5       | 
thought how he looked out of place
 |         |  B5           |         |  E5               | 
He came to the woman who sat there be-side me he 
 |  B5            |  E5          |  A5        | 
had a strange look on his face
     |                |              | 
The big hands were calloused he looked like a 
 |                |          |  A5            |  D5       |  
mountain for a minute I thought I was dead
     |  E5         |             | 
But he started shaking his big heart was 
 |             |               |           |  A5   
breaking he turned to the woman and said
 |  A5            |              |             |  D5     
You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille 
      |             |                |             |  A5      | 
with four hungry children and a crop in the field
 |  D5             |           |                    | 
I've had some bad times lived through some sad times but 
 |                |               |  A5 
this time your hurting won't heal
 |              |  E5           |             |  A5       | 
you picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille.
 

 |  A5        |           |            |           | 
After he left us I ordered more whisky I thought how she'd 
 |               |  E5      | 
made him look small
 |          |  B5            |               |  E5        | 
From the lights of the bar room to a rented ho-tel room we 
 |  B5             |  E5         |  A5       | 
walked without talking at all
 |           |            |               | 
She was a beauty but when she came to me she 
 |                   |  A5          |  D5       | 
must have thought I'd lost my mind
 |  E5         |                   |            | 
I could'nt hold her 'cos the words that told her kept 
 |             |            |  A5
coming back time after time
 |  A5            |              |             |  D5     
You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille 
      |             |                |             |  A5      | 
with four hungry children and a crop in the field
 |  D5             |           |                    | 
I've had some bad times lived through some sad times but 
 |                |               |  A5 
this time your hurting won't heal
 |                |  E5           |             |  A5       | 
you picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille.
