D
[Verse]
A D
When we left, it was cold
A D
Each other's hands we had to hold
A D
We was drunk in Tennessee
A D
She got drunk, as drunk as me
F#m Bm E
She run up the hill, she cried and cried
G D E A
I run down the other side
[Chorus]
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A D
Oh, sweet Lucy, let me go
[Verse]
A D
Police come, they took my wine.
A D
They put us in jail, hundred-dollar fine.
A D
I could hear her cryin' over the wall
A D
In the women's detention hall.
F#m Bm E
I got on the phone, my mama spoke,
G D E A
"Sorry, son, but your mama's broke!"
[Chorus]
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A D
Oh, sweet Lucy, let me go
[Verse]
A D
Wherever I go I get sad.
A D
Seems like sorrow lives in the air.
A D
In the wide-open skies of California,
A D
They have sorrow way out there.
F#m Bm E
Five gets ya ten that ya don't get past;
G D E A
Five gets ya ten that ya better go fast.
[Chorus]
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A D
Oh, sweet Lucy, let me go
[Verse]
A D
Oh, Harry Hubcaps and Jack the Fluke,
A D
They bought a bottle, a bottle for Luke.
A D
They was buddies, but they had a fight;
A D
They broke the jukebox, they broke the light.
F#m Bm E
Big ol' Fluke weigh three-hundred pounds;
G D E A
Fell on Harry when Harry fell down.
[Chorus]
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A D
Oh, sweet Lucy, let me go
[Verse]
A D
My old lady says, "Gimme that wine."
A D
I said, "Honey, quit drinking sometime."
A D
She said, "Snock, it's not my fault!
A D
Had to eat my porkchop without no salt."
F#m Bm E
She run up the hill, she cried and cried
G D E A
I run down the other side
[Chorus]
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A
Oh, sweet Lucy
G A D
Oh, sweet Lucy, let me go
