-3-3* 4  4  4  4 -3* -3  4    4    4  4  -3*
In a bar in To-le-do a-cross from the de-pot 
-3-3* 4    4    4   4   -3* -3  -3*
on a bar-stool she took off her ring 
3   -3*   -3* -3*  -3* -3
I thought I`d get clos-er 
1 -3*  -3*  4 -3* -3
so I walked on o-ver

I sat down and asked her her name

When the drinks fi-n`lly hit her 
-3   4    4  -5  4   -3

I`m af-ter what-ev-er the oth-er life brings 

Verse 2. 
In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him 
I thought how he looked out of place 
He came to the woman who sat there beside me 
he had a strange look on his face 
The big hands were calloused he looked like a 
mountain for a minute I thought I was dead 
But he started shaking his big heart was breaking

With four hun-gry chil-dren 
-5 -5  -6  6  -3    4
and a crop in the field 
 -6  -6   -6  -6   6 -5
I`ve had some bad times 
 -6     -6     -6  -6   6 -5
lived through some sad times

You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille
