Billy Currington - Lucille

Capo I 

Intro : A

A 
In a bar in Toledo, across from the depot,
                                E
On a barstool she took off her ring.

I thought I'd get closer, so I walked on over.
                              A 
I sat down and asked her her name.


When the drinks finally hit her, she said, Im no quitter       
                              D    
But I finally quit living on dreams.
 E
I'm hungry for laughter, and here ever after
                                    A
Whatever the other life brings."


In the mirror I saw him, and I closely watched him.
I thought how he looked out of place.
He came to the woman who sat there beside me
He had a strange look on his face.

The big hands were calloused, he looked like a mountain,
For a minute I thought I was dead.
But he started shaking, his big heart was breaking,
He turned to the woman and said,

(Chorus)
                                        D  
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
                                              A
With four hungry children and a crop in the field.
  D                       
I've had some bad times, I've lived through some sad times,
                            A    
But this time the hurtin' won't heal.
                E                    A  ---------> B 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.


B 
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey.
                                   F#
I thought how she'd made him look small.
                             B 
we walked without talking at all.


She was a beauty, but when she came to me
                                   E
She must have thought I'd lost my mind.
 F#
I couldn't hold her, for the words that he told her
                             B 
Kept comin' back time after time.

(Chorus)
                                       E
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
                                             B
With four hungry children and a crop in the field.
 E
I've had some bad times,
I've lived through some sad times,
                                 B
But this time the hurtin' won't heal.
             F#                    B 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.

(Chorus)
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
                                             B
With four hungry children and a crop in the field.
 E
I've had some bad times,
I've lived through some sad times,
                                 B
But this time the hurtin' won't heal.
             F#                    B 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.
