lucille Kenny Rogers
In a [C] bar in To-ledo ac-ross from the depot
on a bar stool she took off her r[G7]ing
I t[Dm]hought i'd get closer so I [F]walked on over
I s[F]at down and a[G7]sked her n[C]ame
When the [C]drinks finally hit her she said I'm no quitter
but I finally quit l[C7] ivin on d[F]reams
I'm h[G7]ungry for laughter and here ever after
I'm after what-ever the o[F]ther l[G]ife b[C]rings
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 be-side 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
You picked a fine time to leave me Luc[F]ille
with four hungry children and a crop in the f[C]ield
I'[F]ve had some bad times l[Dm7]ived through some sad times
but [F]this time your hurting won't [C]heal
you picked a [G]fine time to l[G7]eave me [C]Lucille[D]
[D]After he left us I ordered more whisky I thought how she'd
made him look s[A7]mall
From the [Em]lights of the bar room to the [G]dim lit hotel room we
walked without [A]talking at [D]all
She was a beauty but when she came to me she
must have thought I'd lost my mind
I could'nt hold her 'cos the words that told her kept
coming back time after time
Chorus
You picked a fine time to leave me Luc[G]ille
with four hungry children and a crop in the f[D]ield
I'[G]ve had some bad times l[Em7]ived through some sad times
but [G]this time your hurting won't [D]heal
you picked a [A]fine time to l[A7]eave me [D]Lucille
repeat chorus
