Louise.
Paul Siebel
C ? ? ?G7
They said that Louise was not all bad,
F G7(3rd) C
It was written on the walls and window shades,
C ? ? ?G7
And though she'd act the little girl,
F G7(3rd) C
A deceiver don't believe her that's her trade.
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
Sometimes a bottle perfume,
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
Flowers and maybe some lace,
? ? ?F G7(3rd) Em(5th)
Men brought Louise ten-cent trinkets,
F7 G7(3rd)
Their intentions were easily traced.
C ? ? ?G7
And every body knew at times she cried,
Ah but women like Louise well they get by.
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
? ? ?F G7(3rd) Em(5th)
C ? ? ?G7
And every- body thought it kind of sad,
F G7(3rd) C
when they found Louise in her room,
C ? ? ?G7
They'd always put her down below their kind,
F7 G7(3rd) C
Still some cried when she died that afternoon.
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
Louise rode home on the mail train,
? ? ?F G7(3rd) C
Some where to the South I heard them say,
? ? ?F G7(3rd) Em(5th)
Too bad it ended so ugly,
Too bad she had to go this way.
C ? ? ?G7
And the wind is blowing cold tonight,
So good night Louise, goodnight.
