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 
      E                   A
The intentions were easily traced 
    D                       E
And everybody knew at times she cried 
    G          A                     D
But woman like Louise  well they get by


PIANO G  O G A D  G A D  G A Bm  E A  


D                        E       
And everybody thought it kinda sad
          G     A         D
When they found Louise in her room
D                                   E
They'd all put her down 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
