From: davies@ils.nwu.edu (Brian Davies) WATCH OUT FOR LUCY by Eric Clapton [A] [C#7] [F#m] [D] [A] [E7] [A] [E7]

Now ^A my friend Bill was just a ^D working lad And he ^C# liked to have his ^D fun. He'd like to ^A find a girl and get ^E comfortable When his ^D working day was ^E7 done.

He would ^F#m spend all his money on a ^C#7 Friday night, ^D Wake up in the morning ^A broke, But he ^F#m had a run in with little ^C#7 Lucy then; Be^Dlieve me that ain't no ^E7 joke.

[A] Watch [C#7] out for [F#m] Lucy, [D]

^A Though she ^C#7 may look ^F#m frail. ^D Said, "Ex^Acuse me, ^C#7 Lucy, ^F#m Darling don't you ^D use me; ^A I don't want to ^E7 land in ^A jail."

[A] [C#7] [F#m] [D] [A] [E7] [A] [E7]

She ^A started out working in a ^D cafe, Picking ^C# money up on the ^D side. She was ^A free and easy, ^E everybody's friend, But she ^D couldn't be satis^E7fied.

So now ^F#m in walks Bill with his ^C#7 cash in his hand, His ^D heart upon his ^A sleeve. We ^F#m tried to warn him a^C#7bout her ways, We ^D never did suc^E7ceed.

Chorus [A] [C#7] [F#m] [D] [A] [E7] [A] [E7]

Well, the ^A trap was sprung for ^D poor old Bill; You should have ^C# heard little Lucy ^D sing "I want a ^A Cadillac car, a ^E beautiful home, And a ^D thousand dollar ^E7 ring."

They ^F#m found our hero in the ^C#7 gutter With a ^D diamond ring and a ^A gun. He'd ^F#m done it for the love of ^C#7 Lucy And ^D ended up on the ^E7 run.
