[Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Gm] Me [Eb] and Louise, we never had [Bb] much luck [F] Just [Gm] _ a couple [Eb] of kids with a lot [Bb] of [Gb] love
[Cm] _ [G] [Gm] We laid [Eb] our fortunes [Bb] on her daddy's old farm [F] _ [Gm] We [Eb] didn't see how dirt could [F] do such harm
[Gm] The [Eb] seasons came and the [Bb] seasons left [F] The [Gm] only [Eb] thing that changed [Bb] was the shape of [D] her dress
[Gm] She said, you're [Eb] a good man, [Bb] I'll have you a child [F] But [Gm] you can't [Eb] raise a living [Bb] thing on this cursed [F] old ground
[Eb] We laid a sheet on [Bb] the piano keys _ [D] _ Crying, good [Gm] lord, _ [F] please, [Eb] please
Packed her things [Bb] into the old farm car [Ab] Just wondering [Eb] if it could take us [F] very far
[Bb] And I say, [Cm] everything about it [Eb] takes a [F] little luck [Cm] [Bb] The [Cm] gears rumble [Eb] and the left one's [F] stuck
_ [Bb] Doesn't [Cm] come with any [Eb] guarantee _ But [Cm] there's gas in [F] the tank
[Bb] _ Louise
_ _ [Gm] Out [Eb] here on the [Bb] borderline, the sun sets [F] low [Gm] Like [Eb] a couple of jackrabbits [Bb] dance in the [D] morning slow
[Gm] I [Eb] knew we'd make it [Bb] if we could just get [F] out _ [Gm] The only [Eb] thing we sought was [F] love and a cell
_ [Gm] _ [Eb] The miles came and the [Bb] miles went [F] Our _ [Gm] _ [Eb] hearts full, our [Bb] money spent
[F] _ [Gm] Somewhere [Eb] outside El Paso, [Bb] my Louise cried [F] out She [Gm] took [Eb] my arm and she said, [Bb] it's time [F] now
[Eb] I prayed and waited [Bb] all night _ _ [D] _ Oh, [Gm] Louise, _ [Bb] please, [Eb] please
I heard a new voice [Bb] with a new day And [Ab] thought back [Eb] to what her daddy [F] used to say
[Cm] [Bb] He said, [Cm] everything about it [Eb] takes a little [F] luck [Cm] _ [Bb] The [Cm] gears rumble [Eb] and the left one's [F] stuck
_ [Bb] _ [Cm] Doesn't come with any [Eb] guarantee _ [Gm] But [C] there's [Bb] gas in the [F] tank [Bb] Louise

_ [F] _ [Gm] We found [Eb] a plot of ground we could [Bb] call our own _ [F] _ [Gm] We [Eb] built a house, we [F] built a home
And [Bb] we said, [Cm] everything about [Eb] it takes a [F] little [Cm] luck [Bb] The [Cm] gears rumble [Eb] and the left [F] one's stuck
_ [Bb] _ [Cm] Doesn't come with any [Eb] guarantee _ But [Cm] there's gas in [F] the tank
[Cm] There's gas in [F] the tank [Cm] Yeah, there's gas in [F] the tank [Bb] Louise
