Louise... by Paul Siebel

D                                          E
They all said Louise was not half bad
           G                  A                      D
It was written on the walls and window shades
D                                       E
And how she'd act the little girl
          G                  A                        D
A deceiver, don't believe her, that's her trade
G                 A            D
Sometimes a bottle of Perfume
G                 A                D
Flowers and maybe some lace
G                  A                     Bm
Men brought Louise 10 cent trinkets
G                                     A
Their intentions were easily traced
D                                                  E
And everybody knew at times she cried
G                      A                           D
But woman like Louise well they get by

D                                             E
And everybody thought it kinda sad
                 G                    A          D
When they found poor Louise in her room
D                                                    E
Though they'd always put her below their kind
                G                     A                 D
Still some cried when she died this afternoon
G                  A               D
Louise rode home on the mail train
G                         A                         D
Somewhere to the south I heard them say
G              A             Bm
Too bad it ended so ugly
E                                      A
Too bad she had to go this way
           D                               E
But the wind is blowin cold tonight
G                      A           D
Good night Louise good night
