[Intro]
B G#m A C#m B F#m G#m G#m G#m B
[Verse]
A E
Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long girl
A G#m C#m B
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
B A G#m C#m B
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
[Chorus]
A E A B G#m G#7 C#m B
Alison I know this world is killing you
A E A B E
Oh Alison my aim is true
[Verse]
A E
Well I see you've got a husband now
A G#m C#m B
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
B A G#m C#m B
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
[Chorus]
A E A B G#m G#7 C#m
Alison I know this world is killing you
A E A D B E
Oh Alison my aim is true
A D B E A D B E
My aim is true, my aim is true
(Repeat to fade)
