Key: E

Introduction: E    A    B    

B                      F#                                    B                 F#  
  I like to think about the time I met you,
B                                         F#                                 B                    F#  
Living with your people down in New Orleans.
B                              F#                                      B              F#  
  Mad at your mama cause she'd never let you,
B                         F#         B  
Ride in no nasty limousine.
Pre-Chorus
E                                                                      G#m  
Later on the levee with the moon up above,
E                                                      F#  
     I lost my heart and confessed my love,
E                                              B                                                    F#                                                                 B  
Oh now Lucy, said, God have mercy, I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout that, somehow.
     B                                            E            A      B  
                     Does me no damn good.
     B  
B                            F#                      B                    F#  
  One Summer night in a field of wheat,
B                              F#                                      B                 F#  
  God's sweet lanterns hanging in the sky.
B                 F#                              B              F#  
  Moving light on your tiny feet,
     B                                 F#                                         B  
I knew I had to love you till the day I die.
Pre-Chorus
E                                            G#m  
They talk about Amazing Grace,
E                                                                      F#  
     it meant something when I saw your face.
E                                              B                                                    F#                                                                 B  
Oh now Lucy, said, God have mercy, I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout that
E      B                              F#                                                            B  
Oh, Lucy said, I can't stop thinkin' bout you.
                             Eb  
I think of all the little things that I never told you,
B  
     I think I may get to hold you someday.
Eb  
  It's my brain just like a man possessed,
                     E                                                         F#  
I can't do me no work, I can't get me no rest,
                     E                                 A            B  
I can't understand it baby.
B                                    F#                                    B                 F#  
  Don't like to think about the way it ended,
B                      F#                              B                                 F#  
  I hate remembering the things that I said.
B                         F#                 B                      F#  
  I dream a dream of love so splendid,
B                         F#                      B  
  I wake up hard in an empty bed.
Pre-Chorus
E                                              G#m  
I wonder who'll be loving you next,
E                                              F#  
  Some fool will be writing bad checks.
E                                              B                                                    F#                                                                 B  
Oh now Lucy, said, God have mercy, I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout you
E                                 B                                                      F#                                                                 B  
Somehow baby, Lord have mercy, I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout that
     B
