In a bar in Toledo, _ across from the depot, on a bar stool she took off [F] her ring. _ _ _
[Cm] I thought I'd get closer, [F] so I walked on over.
[Cm] I sat down [F] 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 the other [Bb] life brings.
_ _ In the mirror I saw him, and I closely watched him.
I thought how he looked out [F] of place.
_ He _ [Cm] came to the woman [F] who sat there beside me.
[Cm] He had a [F] strange look on [Bb] his face.
_ _ _ 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.
He turned to the woman [Bb] and said,
_ _ You picked a fine time to leave me, [Eb] Lucy. _
_ _ _ With four hungry children and a crop in the field. _ _
_ [Eb] I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times,
but this time your 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 how she'd made 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, _ when she came to me,
she must have thought I'd [E] lost [F] my mind. _ _ _
[G] I couldn't hold her, cause the words that he told her
kept coming back time after [C] time. _ _
You picked a fine time to leave me, [F] Lucy. _ _ _
With four hungry children and a crop in [C] the field.
_ _ _ [F] I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times,
but this time your hurting [C] won't heal.
