Alison by Elvis Costello
Intro 000 700
000 700
Oh its so funny to be seeing you after so long girl
000 B20 420
And by the way you look I understand that you were not impressed
000 B20 420
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
500 263 203
Take off your party dress
000 B20 420
I'm not gonna get too sentimental
000 B20 420
Like those other sticky valentines
000 B20 420
Cause I don't know if you were loving somebody
500 263 203
I only know it isn't mine
[Chorus]
000 700 000 200 B20 420 000 700 000 200 700
Alison I know this world is killing you Oh Alison my aim is true
000 700
Well I see you've got a husband now
000 B20 420
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake
000 B20 420
You used to hold him right in your hand
500 263 203
But he took all that he could take
000 B20 420
Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
000 B20 420
When I hear those silly things that you say
000 B20 420
I think somebody better put out the big light
500 263 203
cause I can't stand to see you this way
[Chorus]
000 700 000 700
my aim is true, My aim is true (To fade)
