[Verse]
G*
In a bar in Toledo, across from the depot
D
On a barstool she took off her ring
D7*
I thought I'd get closer
C*
So I walked on over
C* G
I sat down and asked her her name
G*
When the drinks finally hit her
G*
She said, "I'm no quitter
G* C
But I finally quit living on dreams
D7*
I'm hungry for laughter

And here ever after
G
I'm after whatever the other life brings."
G
In the mirror I saw him

And I closely watched him
D
I thought how he looked out of place
D7
He came to the woman
C
Who sat there beside me
G
He had a strange look on his face

The big hands were calloused

He looks like a mountain
C
For a minute I thought I was dead
D
But he started shaking

His big heart was breaking
* G
He turned to the woman and said
N.C. C
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
G
With four hungry children and crops in the field
C
And I've had some bad times

And lived through some sad times
* G
But this time the hurtin' won't heal
D7* G
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
