Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][A][A][A]

[Verse 1]
[A]Sally called, when she got the word
[D]She said "I suppose you've hea[E]rd
about [A]Alice"[E]
Well, I [A]rushed to the window,
and I looked outside
[D]And I could hardly believe my eyes
[E]This big limousine rolled up
into [A]Alice's [E]drive

[Chorus 1]
Oh, I [A]don't know why she's leaving,
or where she's gonna go
I [D]guess she's got her reasons
but I just don't want to know
'Cause for [E]twenty four years
I've been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance
To [D]tell her how I'm feeling,
maybe get a second glance
Now I've [E]gotta get used to not
[D]living next door to [A]Alice[E]

[Verse 2]
We [A]grew up together, two kids in the park
[D]Carved our initials deep in the bar[E]k
me and [A]Alice[E]
Now [A]she walks to the door,
with her head held high
[D]Just for a moment, I caught her eye
[E]As the big limousine pulled slowly
out of [A]Alice's [E]drive

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I [A]don't know why she's leaving,
or where she's gonna go
I [D]guess she's got her reasons
but I just don't want to know
'Cause for [E]twenty four years
I've been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance
To [D]tell her how I'm feeling,
maybe get a second glance
Now I've [E]gotta get used to not
[D]living next door to [A]Alice[E]

[Verse 3]
[A]Then Sally called back,
and asked how I felt
[D]She said "I know how to hel[E]p,
you get over [A]Alice"[E]
She said "Now [A]Alice is gone, but I'm still here
You [D]know I've been waiting twenty four years"
[E]And the big limousine disappeared

[Chorus 3]
I [A]don't know why she's leaving,
or where she's gonna go
I [D]guess she's got her reasons
but I just don't want to know
'Cause for [E]twenty four years
I've been living next door to [A]Alice[E]
[A]Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance
To [D]tell her how I'm feeling,
maybe get a second glance
But I'll [E]never get used to not
[D]living next door to [A]Alice

[Outro 1]
No, I'll [E]never get used to not
[D]living next door to [A]Alice[D][A]
