     A                                                                     E7  
In a bar in Toledo across from the depot on a bar stool she took off her ring  
  Bm                        E7                  Bm           E7        A         
I thought I'd get closer so I walked on over, I sat down and asked her name  
         A                                                                  A7       D   
When the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no quitter but I fin'lly quit living on dreams  
    E7                                                                        A  
I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after I'm after whatever the other life brings  
    A                                                                               E7 
In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him I thought how he looked out of place  
   Bm                        E7                  Bm           E7        A   
He came to the woman who sat there be side me he had a strange look on his face  
         A                                                                  A7       D   
The big hands were calloused he looked like a mountain for a minute I thought I was dead  
    E7                                                                        A  
But he started shaking his big heart was breaking he turned to the woman and said  

             A                     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 lived through some sad times but   
                             A  
This time your hurting won't heal  
             E7                    A  
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille

After he left us I ordered more whiskey I thought how she'd made him look small  
  Bm                        E7                  Bm           E7        A    
From the lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room, we walked without talking at all        
  A                                                                A7       D   
She was a beauty but when she came to me she must have thought I'd lost my mind  
E7                                                                          A  
I couldn't hold her 'cause the words that he told her kept coming back time after time  
  
             A                     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 lived through some sad times but   
                             A  
This time your hurting won't heal  
             E7                    A  
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
