_ _ [C] _ What's it all _ about, _ _ [Dm] _ Alfie? _ _
_ _ [C] Is it just for [Am] the moment _ [Em] we live? _
_ _ _ What's [F] it all _ about _ _ when you [Em] sort it out, [C] _ _ [Am] Alfie?
[Dm] _ _
Are we meant to [F] take more [C] than we give?
_ _ Or [F] are we meant to be _ _ _ kind?
_ [G] _ _ And _ if [C] _ only fools are _ [F] kind, _ _ Alfie, _ _
[C] Then I guess it is [Em]
wise to be cruel.
_ _ And if [Dm] life _ belongs _ only [Em] to the _ strong, [Am] Alfie, _
[C] What will you lend on an old, olden rule? _ _
[Bm] As true _ _ _ _ [G]
as [Cm] I believe,
_ [C] _ There's a heaven [Bm] above _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ me.
_ [C] _ _ [D]
There's [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] something [Cm] much more,
_ [G] [C] Something _ [Dm] even _ non _ _
[G] _ -believers [Em] _ _ [G] can _
[Em] believe _ [G] _ _ _ in.
[C] _ _ _ I believe in _
[Dm] love, _ _ Alfie.
_ [A] _
_ [Am] _ Without [B] true love we just [G] exist, _ _ [Am] _ _
Alfie.
_ _ Until [B] you find the [A] [G] love you've missed,
[Am] You're _ _ [D] nothing, _ Alfie. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
When you walk, _ let your _ heart [Gb] lead the [C] _ _
way,
_ _ And _ [F]
you'll find _ [Dm] love _ any _ _ _ _ [C] day, [A] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ Alfie. _ _
