I've only known her for a while 
                         G 
She came as some surprise 
                                  C 
I see the sunshine when she smiles 
                                  G 
I feel the rainfall when she cries 
 
  
    G                   Am 
She hits me in the heart 
G                       C 
She drops me to my knees 
      G                           Em 
And I don't know where I'd be without you 
            G 
Sweet Louise 
 
  
                               D  C 
Well she flies just like a bird 
                                G 
And she floats just like a dream 
                                   C 
She is the sweetest song I've heard 
                               G 
And the sweetest face I've seen 
 
  
        G                   Am 
And she hits me in the heart 
G                       C 
She drops me to my knees 
  G                           Em 
I don't know where I'd be without you 
            G 
Sweet Louise 
 
  
         Em 
They say patience is a virtue 
           C 
And she'll wait, she won't desert you 
          Em 
She's got hands that couldn't hurt you 
        G 
If they tried 
 
              Em 
With all that happiness she has me 
        C 
But she loves and understands me 
         Em 
Right or wrong, I know 
      G 
She's always by my side 
 
          Em                G6 
So if you please, put me at ease 
            D 
Sweet Louise 
 
  
  
        G                   Am 
And she hits me in the heart 
            G              C 
Oh, and she drops me to my knees 
  G                      Em 
I don't know everything about you 
G                              Em7 
Never you give me no reason to doubt you 
            G            Am 
And I don't wanna be without you 
            D 
Sweet Louise
