With CHORDS and LYRICS! A E
Oh its so funny to be seeing you after so long girl
A G#m C#m
And by the way you look i understand that you were not impressed
A G#m C#m
But i heard you let that little friend of mine
D B7sus4 B7
Take off your party dress
A G#m C#m




I'm not gonna get too sentimental A G#m C#m
Like those other sticky valentines
A G#m C#m
Cause i don't know if you were loving somebody
D B7sus4 B7
I only know it isn't mine



A E A B G#m C#m
Alison i know this world is killing you
A E A B E
Oh Alison my aim is true A E
Well i see you've got a husband now A G#m C#m
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake A G#m C#m
You used to hold him right in your hand D B7sus4 B7
But he took all that he could take
A G#m C#m




Sometimes i wish that i could stop you from talking A G#m C#m
When i hear those silly things that you say A G#m C#m
I think somebody better put out the big light D B7sus4 B7
(Be)cause i can't stand to see you this way


A E A B G#m C#m
Alison i know this world is killing you
A E A B E
Oh Alison my aim is true
A E A E
my aim is true, My aim is true

[JLynnJohnston]

@SaraNiemietz You, miss golden voice, are far too kind!

(thankyou!!!)

[mahramus]

I'm going to start using your channel as a music recommendation engine. Though...I usually like your versions better than the originals. Dilemma.

[JLynnJohnston]

@mahramus Thanks, bruthaman!

[TheScienceFoundation]

Are you *never* going to cover Overcome?

[JLynnJohnston]

@TheScienceFoundation Probably not, actually. It's not my favorite of theirs. And I've already covered "I Alone" on this channel... Plenty of other artists to explore!

[inFinnish]
