Am C
Lucy worked a different club every day
G
And though she put her mind to it
Dm F
Her heart was never in it
Am C
She stayed around just long enough to get paid
G Dm F
She won't pass the time with you, she can't stay a minute
G G7 Am
And all these changing faces never bothered her at all
G F C G
They just existed like a back-drop or a pattern on the wall
G7 Am
Lucy looks like someone who is waiting for a call
G/B Am G/B Am G/B E Am
She knows he'll come, but no-one else can hear at all
Am C
Lucy finds the dressing room and the bar
G
Hangs her clothes up, hopes tonight
Dm F
The contract won't be broken
Am C
Well, they kick you round so much when you're not a star
G Dm F
Make you play all night just for a pittance or a token
G G7 Am
But all these imperfections never bothered her at all
G F C G
She says it sharpens your perception when your back's against the wall
G7 Am
There's something that enables her to rise above it all
G/B Am G/B Am G/B E
To shrug it off, just when it seems to go too far
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel the pain comin' on inside
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel it now and you don't know why
Dm Am
You don't know why, mmmmh

G G7 Am
The last time that I saw her she had given up the chase
G F C G
Moved away to California, got a suntan on her face
G7 Am
She said that life was just another time another space
G/B Am G/B Am G/B E
It's over now, she learned a lot, it's not a waste
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel the pain comin' on inside
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel it now and you don't know why
Dm Am
You don't know why
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel the pain comin' on inside
Am G Fmaj7 Em
Hey, hey, hey, I think you almost feel it now and you don't know why
Dm Am
You don't know why, mmmmh [FADE]
