♫ Verse 1:
FF                     C majorC
Alice shot a possum out of her persimmon tree
     G+G                 FF         C majorC
And she left it in the orchard for all its possum friends to see
FF              C majorC
Crack shot with a 22 when she was ninety-three
     G+G                       G+G
She was only five feet tall but she was twice as wise as me

♫ Chorus:
   FF            C majorC
Oh, Alice, I wish I knew you better
      G+G
You're as pretty as a flower
C majorC          C7C7
Tough as saddle leather
C majorC     FF                     C majorC
I learned more from you that day than all life's teachers put together
   G+G
Oh, Alice
G+G        C majorC
Dear friend of mine

Oh, Alice had a pickup truck and one day we were talkin'

Said that she was all done driving, she was better off a-walkin'
     FF                C majorC
Said "I sent my driver's license to the local DMV
     G+G                          G+G
But the dang fools must be crazy 'cause they sent it back to me

Dear friend of mine
