In a bar in Toledo across from the depot
F7
On a barstool, she took off her ring

When the drinks finally hit her
She said "I'm no quitter

But I finally quit livin' on dreams
F7
I'm hungry for laughter and here ever after

I'm after whatever the other life brings"

Verse 2
Bb
In the mirror, I saw him
and I closely watched him
F7
I thought how he looked out of place
Cm
He came to the woman
F7
who sat there beside me
Cm
F7
Bb
He had a strange look on his face
The big hands were calloused,
he looked like a mountain
Bb7
Eb
For a minute I thought I was dead
F7
But he started shaking,
his big heart was breaking
Bb
He turned to the woman and said
Chorus 1
Eb
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children
Bb
and a crop in the field
Eb
I've had some bad times,
lived through some sad times
Bb
But this time your hurting won't heal
F7
Bb
C
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
Verse 3
C
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey
G7
I thought how she'd made him look small
Dm
From the lights of the barroom
G7
To a rented hotel room
Dm
G7
C
We walked without talking at all
She was a beauty but when she came to me
C7
F
She must have thought I'd lost my mind
G7
I couldn't hold her
'Cause the words that he told her
C
Kept coming back time after time
Chorus 2
F
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children
C
and a crop in the field

I've had some bad times,
lived through some sad times

But this time your hurting won't heal
G7
C
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children

lived through some sad times

You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
