(B flat major) (B flat major) (B flat major) (B flat major)
Verse 1
In a (B flat major) bar in Toledo across from the depot
On a barstool, she took off her ring (F7)
I (C minor) thought I'd get closer so (F7) I walked on over
I (C minor) sat down and (F7) asked her her name (B flat major)
When the drinks finally hit her
She said "I'm no quitter
But I finally quit (B flat7) livin' on (E flat major) dreams
I'm (F7) hungry for laughter and here ever after
I'm after whatever the other life (B flat major) brings"

Verse 2
In the (B flat major) mirror, I saw him
and I closely watched him
I thought how he looked out of place (F7)
He (C minor) came to the woman
who (F7) sat there beside me
He (C minor) had a strange (F7) look on his face (B flat major)
The big hands were calloused,
he looked like a mountain
For a minute I thought (B flat7) I was dead (E flat major)
But (F7) he started shaking,
his big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and (B flat major) said
Chorus 1
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lu (E flat major) cille
With four hungry children
and a crop in the (B flat major) field
(E flat major) I've had some bad times,
lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting won't (B flat major) heal
You picked a (F7) fine time to leave me, Lu (B flat major) cille" (C major)
Verse 3
(C major) After he left us, I ordered more whiskey
I thought how she'd made him look (G7) small
From the (D minor) lights of the barroom
To a (G7) rented hotel room
We (D minor) walked without (G7) talking at (C major) all
She was a beauty but when she came to me
She must have thought I'd (C7) lost my mind (F major)
(G7) I couldn't hold her
'Cause the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after time (C major)
Chorus 2
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lu (F major) cille
With four hungry children
and a crop in the (C major) field
(F major) I've had some bad times,
lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting won't (C major) heal
You picked a (G7) fine time to leave me, Lu (C major) cille"
Outro 1
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lu (F major) cille
With four hungry children
and a crop in the (C major) field
(F major) I've had some bad times,
lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting won't (C major) heal
You picked a (G7) fine time to leave me, Lu (C major) cille"
