[Eb] One, two, three.
[Bb]
[Eb]
Ma Jolie, how do you do?
[Bb] Mon nom est Jean-Guy [Eb] Thibault-Loeu.
I come from East of Gatineau.
[Bb]
My name is Jean-Guy [Eb] Ma Jolie.
[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.
You marry [Ab] me, oh [Eb] Louise.
[Bb] Ma [Eb] Jolie Louise.

Le matin au soleil
[Bb] I did work till [Eb] work was done.
[Bb] And one day the foreman [Eb] said,

[Cm] at the mill
[Ab] anymore.
[Eb] Oh Louise, I'm losing my head.

My kids are small, four and three.
[Bb] Et la bouteille, she's [Eb] mon amie.
I drink their rum till I can't see.
It [Bb] hides the shame Louise does [Eb] not see.
[Bb] The carousel turns in my head
and I [Eb] can't hide.
Oh no, no, no, no.
And [Bb] the rage turns in my head.

down [Eb] on the ground.
I'm losing my mind.
[Bb] I'm losing [Eb] my mind.
En septembre, trois cent trois,
[Bb] kids are gone [Eb] and so is Louise.
Oh Daddy, oh Daddy,
they go near [Bb] la vente,
toe [Eb] to toe.
Now [Bb] my tears,
they roll down to [Eb] the joule.
And [Bb] I remember the days
and [Cm] the promises we [Ab] made.
Oh [Eb] Louise, my Jolie Louise,
[Bb] my Jolie [Eb] Louise.
Oh, oh, [Bb] oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, [Eb] oh.
