[A]Sally called and she got the word.
[D]She said I suppose you've heard.[E].............A[A]bout Alice.[E]..
[A]When I rushed to the window and I looked the outside,
[D]I could hardly believe my eyes.
[E]The big limosine hold up into [A]Alice's driver[E]...
Refrain :__________________________________________________
[A]I don't know why she's leaving and whee she's going to go.
[D]I guess she's got reasons, but I just don't want to know.
Just for [E]24 years I've been living next door to [A]Alice.[E].....
[A]24 years just waiting for a chance
to [D]tell her how I fell and maybe get a second glance.
Now, I've [E]got to get used to not [E7]living next door to [A]Alice.[E]..
____________________________________________________________
[A]We walk together, two kids in the park.
[D]???? ?? ??? (I Can't get them),deep in the ???[E]......Bee[A]n Alice[E].
[A]As she walks to the door and keep her hand high..
[D]Just fo a moment, I cought her eyes.
[E]As the big limosine move slowly, out of [A]Alice's driver.[E]..
Refrain...(Use Riff#1 instead of last E )...
[A]And Sally called back and ask how I felt.
[D]And she said I know how to help[E].........Get ov[A]er Alice.[E]..
[A]She said now Alice has gone but I'm still here...
[D]You know I've been waiting 24 years....
E (Riff#2)
The big limosine disappeared.........
Refrain....
E E7 A (EndRiff)
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice.....
EndRiff :(I'm not sure but something like :)
