Verse 1:
  F# minorF#m
Tragedy befell Louise of Littleville
  A augmentedA
Her lover died of suicide
      D MajorD
And yet she carried on
           B minorBm
As brave as any mouse could be
  F# minorF#m
The suitors came from far and wide
     A augmentedA
And each declared a blazing love that would abide
  D MajorD                  B minorBm
But sweet Louise, she cried and asserted stubbornly:

Refrain:
 A augmentedA
I will not wear a buttercup for you
 E MajorE
I will not dine on wine and cheese with you
 F# minorF#m
I will not share my life
        D MajorD
With any other love
  A augmentedA
He worked his tiny hands unto the bone
  E MajorE
He died despairing, wretched, and alone
 F# minorF#m                   D MajorD
I will not rouse my heart till we reunite above

Verse 2:
   F# minorF#m
Poor Louise's family
              A augmentedA
They shook their headed and pleaded ceaselessly
           D MajorD
Oh daughter, there is so much more to see
          B minorBm
In this fascinating world
   F# minorF#m
Your nest is derelict and disarrayed
A augmentedA
Alone you sit in darkness every day
  D MajorD                   B minorBm
It breaks our hearts to see your sadness, silly girl

Chorus 2:
  A augmentedA
You didn't care when he was still alive
  E MajorE
You didn't care to help us grow and thrive
  F# minorF#m                  D MajorD
You didn't care, you calmly left it up to fate
  A augmentedA
We worked our weary hands unto the bone
  E MajorE
We tried, he broke, he died, I'm left alone
  F# minorF#m                 D MajorD
You didn't care and now it simply is too late.
