[Bb]
In a bar in Toledo, across from the depot, on a bar stool she took [F] off her ring.
[Cm] I thought I'd get closer, [F] so I walked on over, [Cm] I sat [F] down and asked her [Bb] her name.
When the drinks finally hit her, she said I'm no quitter, but I finally quit living
[Eb] on dreams.
[F] I'm hungry for laughter, and here ever after, I'm after whatever [A] the other [Bb] life
brings.
In the mirror I saw him, and I closely watched him, thought how he looked [F] out of
place.
[Cm] He came to the woman [F] who sat there beside me, [Cm] he had a [F] strange look on his face,
[Bb] the big hands were calloused, he looked like a mountain, for a minute I thought I [Eb] was dead.
[F] But he started shaking, his big heart was breaking, and he turned to the woman [Bb] and said,
you picked a fine time [Eb] to leave me Lucy, four hungry children and a crop in [Bb] the field.
[Eb] I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times, and this time you're hurting [Bb] won't
heal, you [F] picked a fine time to leave me [Bb] Lucy.
[C]
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey,
I thought I should make him [G] look small.
[Dm] From the lights of the bar room, [G] to a rented hotel
room, [Dm] we walked [G] without talking [C] at all.
She was a beauty, but when she came to me, she
must have thought [Em] I'd lost [F] my mind.
[G] I couldn't hold her, but the words that he told her kept
coming back time after [C] time.
You picked a fine time to leave me [F] Lucy, four hungry children
and a crop in [C] the field.
[F] I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times, and this
time you're hurting [C] won't heal, you [G] picked a fine time to leave me [C] Lucy.
