As recorded by Turnpike Troubadours (From the 2023 album A CAT IN THE RAIN) [Intro] Dm F C G Dm [Verse 1]
Dm                           F
Well, the neons were new and robin egg blue

    C                           G          Dm
And brandin' iron red, they had nothin' on you

                               F
And the nights were alive in a remodeled dive

    C                        Dm
Sometimes you'd take me home with you

                                      F
And it was later that spring, saw the spark from a ring

  C                     G           Dm
I never protested, just gathered my things

                          F
And I settled my rent and onward I went

    C                        Dm
Oh, lonesome feels better in motion
[Chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light

         F            C            Bb           Dm
With the moon on your shoulders of pearl-handlе white

F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright

      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight
[Interlude] Dm F C G Dm [Verse 2]
Dm                                   F
Well, I'd walked off the stage to an old dog-eared page

C                         G         Dm
Finally worth more than a day labor wage

                       F
I was checkin' in on a rumor from home

      C                           Dm
Oh, I doubt that there's anything to it

                                  F
And you're still just the same, except for your name

  C                        G           Dm
I lost all my half-hearted fortune and fame

                            F
Each night I would find, as if by design

     C                          Dm
Your bonfire that burned in the back of my mind
[Chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light

         F            C            Bb           Dm
With the moon on your shoulders of pearl-handlе white

F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright

      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight
[Interlude] F G C Dm [Bridge]
F                         C
Get out of town, turn the radio down

    Bb                     F               C      G
The window's wide open and you've got your hands on the wheel
[Chorus]
  F        C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), in the flickеring light

         F            C            Bb           Dm
With the moon on your shoulders of pearl-handlе white

F          C                         Dm
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright

      F            G           C      Dm
But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight
[Outro] F G C Dm F G C Dm
