INTRO:

A   D   E   A   E

VERSE 1:

A                                D
Sally called when she got the word.
                                E      A     E
She said I suppose you've heard, about Alice.
       A
Well I rushed to the window, and I looked outside,
D                             E
I could hardly believe my eyes.
                                  A             E
As a big Limousine rolled up into Alice's drive.

CHORUS 1:

      A
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving or where she's gonna go,
  D
I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't wanna know,
         E                                      A     E
Cuz' for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
A
24 years just waiting for the chance
    D
To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
       E                    E7          D       A     E
Now I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice.


VERSE 2:

A                                       D
We grew up together, two kids in the park.
                                        E       A     E
We carved our initials deep in the bark, Me and Alice.
        A
As she walks to the door with her head held high,
D                                E
Just for a moment I caught her eye,
                                      A             E
As the Limousine pulled slowly out of Alice's drive.


CHORUS 2:

      A
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving or where she's gonna go,
  D
I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't wanna know,
         E                                      A     E
Cuz' for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
A
24 years just waiting for the chance
    D
To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
       E                    E7          D       A     E
Now I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice.


VERSE 3:

    A                                     D
And Sally called back and asked how I felt,
                                E         A    E
And she said I know how to help, get over Alice.
              A
She said, now Alice is gone, but I'm still here,
D                                     E
You know I've been waiting for 24 years,

And then the big Limousine disappeared...


CHORUS 3:

      A
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving or where she's gonna go,
  D
I guess she's got her reasons but I just don't wanna know,
         E                                      A     E
Cuz' for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
A
24 years just waiting for the chance
    D
To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
         E                     E7          D       A     E
But I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice...

         E                     E7          D       A     E A
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice.
