#------------------------------------------------------------------------------## WATCH OUT FOR LUCY by Eric Clapton ACFDm AEAE7 A D Now my friend Bill was just a working lad C# D And he liked to have his fun. A E He'd like to find a girl and get comfortable D E7 When his working day was done. F#m C#7 He would spend all his money on a Friday night, D A Wake up in the morning broke, F#m C#7 But he had a run in with little Lucy then; D E7 Believe me that ain't no joke. A C#7 F#m D Watch out for Lucy, A C#7 F#m D Though she may look frail. A C#7 Said, "Excuse me, Lucy, F#m D Darling don't you use me; A E7 A I don't want to land in jail." ACFDm AEAE7 A D She started out working in a cafe, C# D Picking money up on the side. A E She was free and easy, everybody's friend, D E7 But she couldn't be satisfied. F#m C#7 So now in walks Bill with his cash in his hand, D A His heart upon his sleeve. F#m C#7 We tried to warn him about her ways, D E7 We never did succeed. Chorus ACFDm AEAE7 A D Well, the trap was sprung for poor old Bill; C# D You should have heard little Lucy sing A E "I want a Cadillac car, a beautiful home, D E7 And a thousand dollar ring." F#m C#7 They found our hero in the gutter D A With a diamond ring and a gun. F#m C#7 He'd done it for the love of Lucy D E7 And ended up on the run.
