J'ai une maison a Lafontaine where we can live if you marry me

Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
[Verse]
GDG
Tous les matins au soleil I will work 'til work is done
GDG
Tous les matins au soleil I did work 'til work was done

And one day, the foreman said "Jean-Guy, we must let you go"
D7EmC
Et pis mon nom, y est pas bon, at the mill anymore
GDGDGG
Oh Louise, I'm losing my head I'm losing my head

GDG
My kids are small, four and three et la bouteille, she's mon amie
G
I drink the rum 'til I can't see,
DG
It hides the shame Louise does not see
D7GD7G
The carousel turns in my head and I can't hide, oh no, no, no, no
D7EmC
And the rage turned in my head and Louise, I struck her down
GDGDGG
Down on the ground, I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my mind
[Verse]
GDG
En Septembre soixante-trois, kids are gone and so is Louise
GDG
Ontario they did go, near la ville de Toronto
D7GD7G
Now my tears they roll down, tous les jours, whoa, oh, oh, oh
D7EmC
And I remember the days and the promises that we made
GDGDGG
Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
