_ Sally called and she got the [G] word
[D] _ _ She said, I suppose you've heard
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] About Alice
_ [E] _ Well [A] I rushed to the window and I looked outside
[D] And I could hardly believe my eyes
[E] There's a big limousine in the yard _
[A] It's Alice's drive
[E] _ _
Oh [A] I don't know why she's leaving
I don't know where she's gonna go
[D] I guess she's got her reasons
But I just don't wanna know
[E] Cause for 24 years I've been living next door [A] To Alice
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] 24 years she's waiting for a chance
[D] To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[E] Now I gotta get used to [D] not living next door [A] to Alice
_ [E] Grew _ _
_ [A] up together, two kids in the [D] park
Carved our initials deep in the bark
[E] _ Me _ _ _ _ [A] and Alice
_ [E] Now _ _
_ [A] she walks through the door with her head held high
[D] And just for a moment I caught her eye
[E] There's a big limousine, oh slowly _
[A] Out of Alice's drive
[E] _ I _ [A] don't know why she's leaving
I don't know where she's gonna go
[D] I guess she's got her reasons
But I just don't wanna know
[E] Cause for 24 years I've been living next door [A] To Alice
_ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] 24 years she's waiting for a chance
[D] To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[E] Now I gotta get used to [D] not living next door [A] to Alice
I [E] _ _ _
_ [A] _ called back, asked how I felt
[D] _ She said, I know how to help
[E] _ Get _ _ _ _ [A] over Alice
_ [E] _ _
She [A] said, now Alice is gone
But I'm still here
_ [D] You know I've been waiting 24 years
[E] _ Then the big limousine disappeared _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] I don't know why she's leaving
I don't know where she's gonna go
[D] I guess she's got her reasons
But I just don't wanna know
[E] Cause for 24 years I've been living next door [A] To Alice
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] 24 years she's waiting for a chance
[D] To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[E] But I'll never get used to [D] not living next door [A] To Alice _ _ _ _ _
[E] No, I'll never get used to not [D]
