Chords

(Orphans studio version, 2006) [Verse 1]
     C
They say you're seeing someone, you're wearing his ring

                                        G
They say you laughed when you heard my name
They say he takes you dancing, he holds you so near
                            C
They say he'll buy you anything

C
Tell me am I foolish, I don't believe these stories

C            C7          F
And I'll be coming home soon
[Chorus]
  F                       C
Louise, Louise, if it's true

 G   G7    C
Tell it to me
[Verse 2]
   C
I know, you will not see me, but I know you have a daughter

                       G
And I hear she has my eyes
They say she calls him "father", and he's proud of her
                               C
And she believes all of your lies

         C
But for all your faithless beauty, I'd give all my tomorrows

    C                 C7        F
And if you're still thinking of me
[Chorus]
  F                      C
Louise, Louise, if it's true

 G   G7     C
Tell it to me
C G G C C C7 F F C G G7 C [Chorus]
     F                      C
Oh Louise, Louise, if it's true

 G   G7     C
Tell it to me

     F                      C
Oh Louise, Louise, if it's true

 G   G7     C
Tell it to me
