[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    B       E
Oh Alison   my aim is true
A          E          A        E
my aim is true,    My aim is true     (To fade)
