No Easy Version
| A D |
| Sally called, when she got the word, |
| D E |
| She said "I suppose you've heard |
| A E A |
| About Alice." |
| A |
| Well, I rushed to the window, |
| A D |
| And I looked outside, |
| D E |
| And I could hardly believe my eyes, |
| E |
| This big limousine pulled slowly |
| A E |
| Into Alice's drive. |
| A |
| Oh I don't know why she's leaving, |
| A |
| Or where she's gonna go, |
| D |
| I guess she's got her reasons |
| D |
| But I just don't wanna know |
| E |
| 'Cause for twenty four years |
| E A E |
| I've been living next door to Alice. |
| A |
| Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance, |
| D |
| To tell her how I'm feeling, |
| D |
| Maybe get a second glance, |
| E |
| Now I've gotta get used to not |
| D A E A |
| Living next door to Alice. |
| A D |
| Grew up together, two kids in the park, |
| D E |
| Carved our initials deep in the bark |
| E A E |
| Me and Alice. |
| A |
| Now she walks to the door, |
| A D |
| With her head held high, |
| D E |
| Just for a moment, I caught her eye, |
| E |
| As the big limousine pulled slowly |
| A E |
| Out of Alice's drive. |
| A |
| Oh I don't know why she's leaving, |
| A |
| Or where she's gonna go, |
| D |
| I guess she's got her reasons |
| D |
| But I just don't wanna know |
| E |
| 'Cause for twenty four years |
| E A E |
| I've been living next door to Alice. |

| Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance, |

| To tell her how I'm feeling, |

| E |
| Now I've gotta get used to not |
| D A E A |
| Living next door to Alice. |
| A D |
| Sally called back, and asked how I felt, |
| D E |
| She said "I know how to help... |
| A E |
| You get over Alice." |
| A |
| She said "Now Alice is gone, |
| A |
| But I'm still here |
| D E |
| You know I've been waiting 24 years." |
| E |
| And the big limousine disappeared. |
