greatest elton john song of all time .
if you have a correction . . . don’t email me . tab it yourself

no capo
standard tuning

all the girls love alice

Am# F#
raised to be a lady by the golden rule ,
Dm# Am#
alice was the spawn of a public school .
F#
with a double barrel name . . in the back of her brain ,
Dm# G# Am#
and a simple case of mummy – dont – love – me blues .

verse 2
Am# F#
reality it seems . . was just a dream ,
Dm# Am#
she couldnt get it on . . with the boys on the scene .
F#
but what do you expect from a chick whos just sixteen ,
Dm# G# Am#
and hey hey hey ( hey hey hey ) . . . you know what i mean .

chorus 1
Am# F7#
all the young girls love alice ,
C# D7#
tender young alice they say .
Am# F#
come over and see me , come over and please me ,
G# B Am#
alice it’s my turn today .

Am# F7#
all the young girls love alice ,
C# D7#
tender young alice they say .
Am# F#
if i give you my number will you promise to call me?
G# B Am#
wait till my husbands away .

( you understand by now )

verse 3
poor little darling . . with a chip out of her heart ,
it’s like acting in a movie . . when you’ve got the wrong part .
getting your kicks , in another girls bed ,
and it was only last tuesday . . . oh . . they found you in the subway dead .

verse 4
and who could you call your friends down in soho?
one or two , middle aged dykes in a go – go?
and what do you expect from a sixteen year old yo – yo?
and hey hey hey ( hey hey hey} . . . oh don’t you know .

chorus
Am# F7#

come over and see me , come over and please me ,
G# B Am#
alice it’s my turn today .

Am# F7#
all the young girls love alice ,
