Living Next Door To Alice - Smokie | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Intro]
---------------------
A

[Verse 1]
---------------------
A
 Sally called when she got the word
D
 And she said: "I suppose you've heard
E      A
 About Alice"
E       A
 When I rushed to the window
And I looked outside
D
 And I could hardly believe my eyes
E
 As a big limousine rolled up
     A
Into Alice's drive...

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
E      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 want to know
         E
'Cos for twenty four years
                              A
I've been living next door to Alice
E A
  Twenty four years just waiting for a chance
   D
To tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
         E                      D                   A
Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice...

[Verse 2]
---------------------
E   A
 We grew up together
Two kids in the park
D
 We carved our initials
Deep in the bark
E  A
 Me and Alice
E    A
 Now she walks through the door
With her head held high
D
 Just for a moment, I caught her eye
E
 As a big limousine pulled slowly
       A
Out of Alice's drive

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
E      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 want to know
         E
'Cos for twenty four years
                              A
I've been living next door to Alice
E A
  Twenty four years just waiting for a chance
   D
To tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
         E                      D                   A       E
Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice...

[Verse 3]
---------------------
A
 And Sally called back and asked how I felt
D
 And she said: "I know how to help
E         A
 Get over Alice"
E               A
 She said: "Now Alice is gone
But I'm still here
    D
You know I've been waiting
For twenty four years..."
E
 And a big limousine disappeared...

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
  A
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 want to know
         E
'Cos for twenty four years
                              A
I've been living next door to Alice
E A
  Twenty four years just waiting for a chance
   D
To tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
         E                      D                   A
Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice...

[Outro]
---------------------
         E                     D                   A
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice...
