Verse 1:
    F#m
Tragedy befell Louise of Littleville
    A
Her lover died of suicide
            D
And yet she carried on
                      Bm
As brave as any mouse could be
    F#m
The suitors came from far and wide
         A
And each declared a blazing love that would abide
    D                                    Bm
But sweet Louise, she cried and asserted stubbornly:
Refrain:
  A
I will not wear a buttercup for you
  E
I will not dine on wine and cheese with you
  F#m
I will not share my life
               D
With any other love
   A
He worked his tiny hands unto the bone
   E
He died despairing, wretched, and alone
  F#m                                     D
I will not rouse my heart till we reunite above


Instrumental:
F#m  A  D  Bm


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


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


Instrumental:
F#m  A  D  Bm   (x2)

Oh, my love, I'm sorry, sorry
F#m               D
Oh, my love, come save me, save me
A               E
Oh, my love, forgive my weakness
F#m              D
Oh, my god, it's hopeless, hopeless
A                E
Oh, my love, I'm sorry, sorry
F#m               D
Oh, my love, come save me, save me
A               E
Oh, my love, forgive my weakness
F#m              D              A   E
Oh, my god, it's hopeless, hopeless
F#m  D
Ooooooo

Refrain:
  A
I will not wear a buttercup for you

I will not dine on wine and cheese with you

I will not share my life
               D
With any other love

He worked his tiny hands unto the bone
   E
He died despairing, wretched, and alone
  F#m                                     D
I will not rouse my heart till we reunite above
