Jolie Louise

Ma jolie, how do you do?
Mon nom est Jean-Guy Thibault-Leroux
I come from East of Gatineau
My name is Jean-Guy, ma jolie
J'ai une maison à Lafontaine
Where we will live, if you marry me
Une belle maison à Lafontaine
Where we will live, you [A7and [Bm]me
O-oh Louise ma jolie Louise

Tous les matins au soleil
I will work till work is done
Tous les matins au soleil
I did work till work was [Am7]done
And one day the foreman
Said "Jean-Guy, we must let you [A7go"
Et puis mon [C7]nom, il est pas bon
At the mill any more
O-oh Louise, I'm losing my [A]head
I'm losing my [A]head

My kids are small, four and [Bm]three
Et la bouteille, she's mon [C7]amie
I drink the ɾum till I can't see
It hides the shame Louise does not see
The carousel turns in my [A]head
And I can't hide, oh no no no no
And the ɾage turned in my [A]head
And Louise, I stɾuck her down
Down on [C7]the ground, I'm losing my [A]mind
I'm losing my [A]mind

O-oh Louise, I'm losing my [A]mind
I'm losing my [A]mind

En septembre soixante-tɾois
The kids are gone, and [Bm]so is Louise
Ontario they did go
Near la ville de Toronto
Now my [A]tears, they ɾoll down
Tous les jours, o-o-o-oh
And I ɾemember the days
And the promises that we made
O-oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
O-oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
O-oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
