Living Next Door to Alice Smokie
Smokie "Living next door to Alice"
This is my first tab that I have ever done so just bear with me.
This should be exact as I have played it along with the cd and it sounds
100% right. The timing of this tab is 4/4. And I hope you enjoy this song.
Verse 1
[A]Sally called and she got the word[D].
She said I suppose you've heard,[E] about [A]alice[E].
When I [A]rushed to the window, and I looked outside
[D]I could hardly believe my eyes[E].
And the big limosine pulled up, in [A]alices drive[E].
Chorus.
Oh, I [A]dont know why she's leavin,
or where she's gunna go
I [D]guess she's got her reaons
but I just dont wanna know
cause for [E]24 years i've been living next door to [A]alice[E]
[A]24 years just waiting for the chance
to t[D]ell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
Now I g[E]otta get used to not l[E7]ivin next door to [A]alic[E]e
Verse2
[A]We walked together, two kids in the park[D]
We inscribed our initials deep in the bark[E] me and [A]alice[E]
As she w[A]alks to the door with her head held high
[D]just for a moment I caught her eye[E]
As the limosine pulls out, of al[A]ices drive[E]
Go back to Chorus.
Verse3
And [A]sally called back and asked how i felt[D]
And she said I know how to help[E], get over [A]alice[E]
She said, now [A]alice is gone, but im still here
[D]you know i've been waiting for 24 years[E]
And the big limosine dissapeared.
Go to chorus. repeat untill fade.
