Verse 1:
(Played choppy and often mute strings, by lifting fingers off the fretboard, in-between strumming.)
Bm
I've been around this town for so long
C#m
She's been dancing since the first day
I've been all around but
Bm
I love comin' back to see Lucy
Verse 2:
Bm
She swings me over to pull me out
Twirls around and I fall about
C#m
In giggles and laughter
Oh! I'm plastered
Bm
Can't damn help it, I'm sorry love
Verse 3:
Bm
What's to falling feeling feet?
Bm
For bouncing a-round-a these streets
C#m Bm
They're lonely, like you and you for me
To ask for a dance or two
Bridge:
Bm
With a heart of gold
And a face so pale
C#m
With a second-hand dress
Bm
And the lips of a temptress
Verse 4:
Bm
Barstool banshee, howled out at me

The kings and queens of the clubs, evolved from pubs
And too much broken heart love

And singin' up the blues in a locked boxed bedroom
