Living Next Door To Alice Tab

by 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
                                
Sally called and she got the word.
                                          
She said I suppose you've heard, about alice.
       
When I rushed to the window, and I looked outside
                             
I could hardly believe my eyes.
                                              
And the big limosine pulled up, in alices drive.

Chorus.
      
Oh, I dont know why she's leavin,

or where she's gunna go
  
I guess she's got her reaons

but I just dont wanna know
                                                    
cause for 24 years i've been living next door to alice

24 years just waiting for the chance
    
to tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
                                               
Now I gotta get used to not livin next door to alice

Verse2
                                       
We walked together, two kids in the park
                                                     
We inscribed our initials deep in the bark me and alice
        
As she walks to the door with her head held high
                                 
just for a moment I caught her eye
                                         
As the limosine pulls out, of alices drive

Go back to Chorus.

Verse3
                                         
And sally called back and asked how i felt
                                              
And she said I know how to help, get over alice
              
She said, now alice is gone, but im still here
                                      
you know i've been waiting for 24 years

And the big limosine dissapeared.

Go to chorus. repeat untill fade.
