Becoming More Like Alfie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Once[G] there was a time[Am][G]
When my [F#dim]mind lay[F#m][F#dim]
on [F]higher [Em]things
And [Am]once [G]there was a t[Am]ime[G]
I could [F#m]find p[F#dim]retty wor[F]ds to sin[Em]g
But [Am]now, [G]well now I fin[Am]d[G]
It saves [F#dim]time to say what[F] you mean[Em]
I know it [Am]seems [G]so unre[Am]fined[G]
But it's [F#dim]time to let off [F]some steam
[Em]

[Verse 2]
Oh come [F]on!
Every[F#dim]body know[D]s that
[Am]No means Y[Em]es
Just [F]like glasses [D]come
free on [G]the N.H.S.
But [F]the more I [F#dim]look through
[D]them [Am]the more I [Em]see
I'm be[F]coming [G]more like Alfie
[C][Em]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Once [G]there was a t[Am]ime[G]
When a [F#m]kind w[F#dim]ord
could [F]be [Em]enough
And [Am]once [G]there was a t[Am]ime
[G]I could b[F#dim]lindfold mys[F]elf with l[Em]ove
But not [Am]now [G]- now I'm [Am]resi[G]gned
To the [F#dim]kind of life I ha[F]d reser[Em]ved
For other [Am]guys [G]less smart
than [Am]I[G]
Y'know - the [F#dim]kind who will
[F]always end [Em]up with the girls

[Verse 4]
And [F]besides
Every[F#dim]body know[D]s
that [Am]No means Ye[Em]s
Just like [F]glasses [F#dim]come
[D]free on [G]the N.H.S.
But [F]the more I [F#dim]look thro[D]ugh
them the [Am]more I [Em]see
I'm be[F]coming [G]more like [C]Alfie

[Outro 1]
Oh come on!
[F][F#dim][D][Am][Em][F]
[F#dim][D][F][G][F][D][Am][Em]
[F][G][C]
