Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up
Frank Zappa
Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up (Jeff Simmons and Frank Zappa) I must admit (almost sacrilegious) that I don’t really like the reggae version on Joe’s Garage Part one and think it could have been reworked so this arrangement is more in the nature of a “normal” ballad. I express my indebtedness to Version 1 Possibly there should be a chick flick video made about why Joe should have stayed with his previous girlfriend Mary? I like to increase the “power ballad” quotient by slightly changing the chords (see at the bottom of the tab). Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still love her Oh I still love her Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still love her Oh I still love her Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still need her You know I need her What are you trying to do to me Lucille? What are you trying to do to me Lucille? What are you trying to do to me Lucille? You got me goin’ out of my mind Lu Ooh Ooh cille has torn my heart up But I still love her I really love her Lu Ooh Ooh cille has torn my heart up But I still need her You know I need her She treats me like my heart is made of stone She runs around and leaves me home all alone She doesn’t answer when I call her on the phone She messed up my mind & I’m crying all of the time Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still love her Oh I still love her and so on Power Ballad version Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still love her Oh I still love her Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still love her Oh I still love her Lu ooh ooh cille has messed my mind up But I still need her you know I need her. What are you trying to do to me Lucille? What are you trying to do to me Lucille? What are you trying to do to me Lucille? You got me goin’ out of my mind And so on I haven’t carefully tracked the guitar parts so treat this as an arrangement rather than an attempt to perfectly tab the record.
