(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
   She's been dancing since the first [C#m]day

   I've been all around but
   I[Bm]  love comin' back to see Lucy

{section: Verse 2}
   She[Bm]  swings me over to pull me out

   In [C#m]giggles and laughter

   Oh! I'm plastered

{section: Verse 3}
 [Bm]  What's to falling feeling feet?
 [Bm]  For bouncing a-round-a these streets
   They're [C#m]lonely, like you and you [Bm]for me

   To ask for a dance or two

{section: Bridge}
   With a [Bm]heart of gold

   And a face so pale
   With a [C#m]second-hand dress
   And the [Bm]lips of a temptress

{section: Verse 4}
   [Bm]Barstool banshee, howled out at me
   The kings and queens of the clubs, evolved from [C#m]pubs

   And too much broken heart love
   And [Bm]singin' up the blues in a locked boxed bedroom
