_ [Bb] J'ai une maison à la fontaine
where [Eb] we will live if you marry me.
[Bb] Une belle maison à la fontaine
where [Cm] we will live if [Ab] you marry me.
[Eb] Oh, _ ma jolie maison, _ _ _ [Bb] ma [Eb] jolie maison.
_ _ Je ne m'attendais pas à la maison.
I [Bb] will work till [Eb] work is done.
_ _ Je ne m'attendais pas à la maison. _

And [Bb] one day the foreman said,
[Eb] _ We must let you [Bb] go.

At [Cm] the mill _ _ [Ab] anymore.
[Eb]

I'm losing my head.
_ _ My kids are small, four and three.
And [Bb] I'm going to _ [Eb] be.
_ _ _ I drink the rum till I can't see.
It [Bb] hides the shame.
Louise does [Eb] not see.
_ _ [Bb] Carousel turns in my head and I [Eb] can't hide.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
And [Bb] the rage turns in my head.
And [Cm] Louise, _ I struck [Ab] her down, down [Eb] on the ground.
I'm losing my mind.
