Billy Currington – Lucille chords

Lucille

Capo I 

Intro : A

A In a bar in Toledo, across from the depot,
                                EOn 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.
 EI'm hungry for laughter, and here ever after
                                    AWhatever 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
                                              AWith 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.
From the lights of the barroom to the rented hotel room
                             B we walked without talking at all.


She was a beauty, but when she came to me
                                   EShe 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
                                             BWith four hungry children and a crop in the field.
 EI've had some bad times,
I've lived through some sad times,
                                 BBut 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
                                             BWith four hungry children and a crop in the field.
 EI've had some bad times,
I've lived through some sad times,
                                 BBut this time the hurtin' won't heal.
             F#                    B You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.
