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[D]lieve 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[A]cuse 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[E7]fied.

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#7]bout her ways,

We [D] never did suc[E7]ceed.

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.
