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
