Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Today was Angie's birthday

I guess it slipped your mind

I tried twice to call you

But no answer either time

But the postman brought a present

I mailed some days ago

I just signed it love from mama

So Angie wouldn't know.

Chorus

Alice please believe me

I can't go on and on

Holding things together

With you gone.
