Turnpike Troubadours - Lucille Chords

[intro]
Dm  F  C  G

[verse 1]
          Dm                  F
Well, the neons were new and robin egg blue
    C                           G          Dm
And brandin' iron red, they had nothin' on you
                               F
And the nights were alive in a remodeled dive
    C                        Dm
Sometimes you'd take me home with you

And it was later that spring,
        F
saw the spark from a ring
  C                     G           Dm
I never protested, just gathered my things
                          F
And I settled my rent and onward I went
    C                        Dm
Oh, lonesome feels better in motion

[chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light
         F            C
With the moon on your shoulders
   Bb           Dm
of pearl-handlе white
  F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight

[interlude]
Dm  F  C  G

[verse 2]
Dm
Well, I'd walked off the stage
      F
to an old dog-eared page
C                         G         Dm
Finally worth more than a day labor wage
                       F
I was checkin' in on a rumor from home
      C                           Dm
Oh, I doubt that there's anything to it

And you're still just the same,
  F
except for your name
  C                        G           Dm
I lost all my half-hearted fortune and fame
                            F
Each night I would find, as if by design
     C                          Dm
Your bonfire that burned in the back of my mind

[chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light
         F            C
With the moon on your shoulders
   Bb           Dm
of pearl-handlе white
  F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight

[interlude]
F  G  C  Dm

[bridge]
F                         C
Get out of town, turn the radio down
    Bb
The window's wide open
    F               C      G
and you've got your hands on the wheel

[chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light
         F            C
With the moon on your shoulders
   Bb           Dm
of pearl-handlе white
  F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight

[outro]
F  G  C  Dm  F  G  C  Dm
