Louise
by Paul Siebel

   C				   Dm
They all said Louise was not half bad
       F	      G			C
Was written on the walls and window shades 
   C				Dm
And how, she’d act the little girl 
	F		G		     C
A deceiver, don’t believe her, that’s her trade 
   F		G	  C
Sometimes a bottle of perfume
       F	   G	      C
Some flowers and maybe some lace 
   F		G	  	Am
Men brought Louise ten cent trinkets 
	Dm			G
Their intentions were easily traced 
      C				    Dm
And everybody knew sometimes she cried
      F		   G		C
But women like Louise they get by


Everybody put her down
When they found Louise in her room 
They always said she'd go that way
Still some cried, when she died, this afternoon 

Louise rode home on a mail train 
Somewhere to the South, they say 
Too bad it ended so ugly 
Too bad she had to go that way 

Well, the wind, it’s blowing cold tonight 
Good night Louise, good night,
