G Em G
//// / /
(Spoken)
I went to see an old army buddy of mine to do some drinking
And his wife had become an alcoholic
And I wrote a song about it
G Em G
//// / /
CHORUS:
G C
Pay no attention to Alice,
G Em
She's drunk all the time
C G
Booked on that wine,
C
Bunches of it
G Em G G Em G
And it ruined her mind
G C
Pay no attention to Alice,
G Em
They say she's a sot,
C G
Sane she is not
C
But she loves it
G Em G G Em G
And it's all she's got
VERSE:
D C
She made that apple pie from a memory
G
Made them biscuits
D
From a recollection
G Em G G Em G
That she had
D
She cooked that chicken too long
C
But she don't know that
G Em G G Em G
Oh, what the hell,
D
It ain't too bad!

VERSE:
D C
Don't talk about the war, I was a coward
G
Talk about fishing
D
And all the good times
G Em G G Em G
Raising hell
D
Empty that one down,
C
We'll get another
G Em G G Em G
It's gettin' late,
D
We might as well
VERSE:
D
But we ran your car into a ditch,
C
Man, don't sweat it
G
I know Ben
D
Down at the Shell station
G Em G G Em G
And he'll get it out
OUTRO:
D C
Alice, put your ashes in that ashtray
G Em G G Em G
I swear woman,
D
You're gonna burn down the house
G C
Pay no attention to Alice,

She's drunk all the time
