Living Next Door To Alice chords
(later recorded as "Alice, Who the Fuck is Alice?")
Smokie (Chinn/Chapman) *
[A]Sally called and she got the word,[D]
she said I suppose you've heard,[E] about [A]Alice[E].
When I [A]rushed to the window, and I looked outside,
[D]I could hardly believe my eyes[E].
And the big limousine pulled up, in [A]Alice s drive[E].
Oh, I [A]don t know why she s leaving,
or where she s goanna go
I [D]guess she s got her reasons,
but I just don t want to know;
cause for [E]twenty four years I ve been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
to [D]tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
Now I [E]got to get used to not [E7]living next [D]door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]We walked together, two kids in the park[D],
we inscribed our initials deep in the bark,[E] me and [A]Alice[E]
As she [A]walks to the door with her head held high,
[D]just for a moment I caught her eye[E];
as the limousine pulls out, of [A]Alice s drive[E]
Oh, I [A]don t know why she s leaving,
or where she s goanna go
I [D]guess she s got her reasons,
but I just don t want to know;
cause for [E]twenty four years I ve been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
to [D]tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
Now, I [E]got to get used to not [E7]living next [D]door to [A]Alice[E]
And [A]Sally called back and asked how I felt[D],
and she said I know how to help[E], get over [A]Alice[E]
She said, now [A]Alice is gone, but I m still here,
[D]you know I ve been waiting for twenty four [E]years;
and the big limousine disappeared.
Oh, I [A]don t know why she s leaving,
or where she s goanna go
I [D]guess she s got her reasons,
but I just don t want to know;
cause for [E]twenty four years I ve been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
to [D]tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
But I ll [E]never get used to not [E7]living next [D]door to [A]Alice[E]
No, I ll [E]never get used to not [E7]living next [D]door to [A]Alice
