(Spoken)

And his wife had become an alcoholic
And I wrote a song about it

G+G  E minorEm G+G
//// / /

CHORUS:
 G+G         C majorC
Pay no attention to Alice,
    G+G      E minorEm
She`s drunk all the time
 C majorC       G+G
Booked on that wine,
 C majorC
Bunches of it
    G+G     E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
And it ruined her mind

 G+G         C majorC
Pay no attention to Alice,
   G+G     E minorEm
They say she`s a sot,
 C majorC      G+G
Sane she is not

But she loves it
     G+G      E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
And it`s all she`s got

She made that apple pie from a memory
      G+G
Made them biscuits
     D MajorD
From a recollection
     G+G E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
That she had

   D MajorD
She cooked that chicken too long
        C majorC
But she don`t know that
G+G         E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
Oh, what the hell,
D MajorD
It ain`t too bad!

Pay no attention to Alice,
    G+G      E minorEm

 C majorC       G+G
Booked on that wine,
 C majorC
Bunches of it
    G+G     E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
And it ruined her mind

 G+G         C majorC
Pay no attention to Alice,
   G+G     E minorEm
They say she`s a sot,
 C majorC      G+G
Sane she is not

     G+G      E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
And it`s all she`s got


VERSE:
 D MajorD                 C majorC
Don`t talk about the war, I was a coward
      G+G
Talk about fishing
       D MajorD
And all the good times
     G+G E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
Raising hell

 D MajorD
Empty that one down,
      C majorC
We`ll get another
 G+G        E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
It`s gettin` late,
D MajorD
We might as well


VERSE:
    D MajorD
But we ran your car into a ditch,
       C majorC
Man, don`t sweat it
    G+G
I know Ben
       D MajorD
Down at the Shell station
         G+G E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
And he`ll get it out


OUTRO:
 D MajorD               C majorC
Alice, put your ashes in that ashtray
     G+G  E minorEm G+G  G+G  E minorEm G+G
I swear woman,
       D MajorD
You`re gonna burn down the house

 G+G         C majorC
Pay no attention to Alice,
    G+G
She`s drunk all the time
