WATCH OUT FOR LUCY by Eric Clapton

A

A

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

But he [F#m] had a run in with little [C#7] Lucy then; Be[D]lieve me that ain't no [E7] joke.

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

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.
