(later recorded as "Alice, Who the Fuck is Alice?")
Smokie (Chinn/Chapman) *

A                                 D
Sally called and she got the word,
                                E      A    E
she said I suppose you've heard, about Alice.
       A
When I rushed to the window, and I looked outside,
D                             E
I could hardly believe my eyes.
                                    A            E
And the big limousine pulled up, in Alice s drive.

      A
Oh, I don t know why she s leaving,

or where she s goanna go
  D
I guess she s got her reasons,

but I just don t want to know;
          E                                               A    E
cause for twenty four years I ve been living next door to Alice
A
Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
   D
to tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
      E                      D           E7      A    E
Now I got to get used to not living next door to Alice

A                                       D
We walked together, two kids in the park,
                                           E       A    E
we inscribed our initials deep in the bark, me and Alice
       A
As she walks to the door with her head held high,
D                                 E
just for a moment I caught her eye;
                               A            E
as the limousine pulls out, of Alice s drive

      A
Oh, I don t know why she s leaving,

or where she s goanna go
  D
I guess she s got her reasons,

but I just don t want to know;
          E                                               A    E
cause for twenty four years I ve been living next door to Alice
A
Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
   D
to tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
      E                      D           E7      A    E
Now I got to get used to not living next door to Alice

    A                                     D
And Sally called back and asked how I felt,
                               E          A     E
and she said I know how to help, get over Alice
              A
She said, now Alice is gone, but I m still here,
D                                          E
you know I ve been waiting for twenty four years;

and the big limousine disappeared.

      A
Oh, I don t know why she s leaving,

or where she s goanna go
  D
I guess she s got her reasons,

but I just don t want to know;
          E                                               A    E
cause for twenty four years I ve been living next door to Alice

A
Twenty four years just waiting for the chance,
   D
to tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
         E                     D           E7      A    E
But I ll never get used to not living next door to Alice

         E                     D           E7      A    
No, I ll never get used to not living next door to Alice
