and I could hardly believe my eyes.
E A E
And the big limousine rolled up, into Alice's drive.
[Chorus]
A
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna go.
D
I guess she's got her reasons, but I just don't wanna know.
E A E
Cause for twenty-four years I've been living next door to Alice.
A
Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance,
D
to tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance,
E D A E
now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice.

As the limousine pulls out, of Alices drive
