Paul Siebel - Louise

      
 
 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,
 F7                G7                   C  
 Ah but women like Louise well they get by.

 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,
     F7                     G7  
 Too bad she had to go this way.

 And the wind is blowing cold tonight,
 F7                G7      C     
 So good night Louise, goodnight.
