[Intro]
C G Am G Bb Am F G
C G Am F C G F G
[Verse 1]
C G
Well, they've torn up the streets and
Am G
Burned off the fields,
Bb Am F G
And turned all the dogs to the woods;
Am G
They took up the cross
Am F
But they lost the third reel
C G F
And the picture was just getting good;
Am C
Evening is crawling,
F Fm
Summer is Lost
C Em Am F
- They're dragging the pond for it now,
C G Am
They've painted the windows all shut
F
And the frost has
C G C
Warmed everything up somehow
[Chorus 1]
F Em G
And you can ask me for nothing at all
F C G
And I'll always be what you please,
Am C D
You can never leave nothing behind you
F G C
And I always will love Louise
[Interlude]
G Am G Bb Am F G
[Verse 2]
C G
You've seen this before
Am G
And to hear you tell,
Bb Am F G
It's not worth the tears or the rain;
C G
There's nothing worth keeping
Am F
But nothing you'd sell,
C G F
Though you'd trade it all for a seat on the train;
Am G
When your breath can be seen
F Fm
It hangs at your knees
C Em Am F
But raises itself like a crow,
C G
You can jump for your life
Am F
From your place in the trees
C G C
But you'd do well to just watch it go
[Chorus 2]
F Em G
And you can ask me for nothing at all
F C G
And I'll always be what you please,
Am C D
You can never leave nothing behind you
F G C
And I always will love Louise
[Interlude]
G Am G Bb Am F G
[Verse 3]
C G
You can send me alone
Am G
To the shed after dark,
Bb Am F G
Lay me down in my Easter Clothes,
C G
Or send them along
Am F
To my folks with your prayers
C G F
But save me at least one of those;
Am G
You can make me your only one
F Fm
Or leave me today
C G Am F
And send no more mail than you do,
C G
I may never be able
Am F
To reach you this way
C G C
But I always will reach out to you
[Chorus 3]
F Em G
And you can ask me for nothing at all
F C G
And I'll always be what you please,
Am C D
You can never leave nothing behind you
F G Bb Am
And I always will love Louise
F G C
I always will love Louise
