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 

Harp: F
 Chorus

And turned to the wom-an and said

You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille 
 -6   7    7   7   7    -7
With four hun-gry chil-dren 
-6 -6  7   -7  5    6
and a crop in the field 
 7    7   7    7  -7 -6
I`ve had some bad times 
  7      7     7    7  -7 -6
lived through some sad times 
-6   7    7    7    7   6    -5    6
but this time your hurt-in` won`t heal 
 6    6    6  6    -4  5   -5   5  -3   4
You picked a fine time to leave me Lu-cille
