or A D x2 [Verse 1]
A
  She's on the western side

D
  Looking at the Jersey Skyline

A
  She's in a real bad mood

D
  So she couldn't write back to you

A
  She had the longest day

D
  And it's a gridlocked highway

A
  She's in a real bad mood

D                              (F#)
  So she couldn't write back to you
[Chorus]
F#           E            D
   Hey Allison! Hey Allison! Hey Allison!
The city is a total disaster without you around
F#           E            D
   Hey Allison! Hey Allison! Hey Allison!
The city is a total disaster without you around [Verse 2]
A
  You spent the days inside

D
  Avoiding social landmines

A                          F#
  That poke at every bruise

       F
Is she gonna write back to you?

A
  You're an exhausted kid

D
  Of fractured relationships

A                           F#
  You wanna crush that gloom!

       F                  (F#)
is she gonna write back to you?
[Chorus]
F#           E            D
   Hey Allison! Hey Allison! Hey Allison!
This sudden detachment from friendship is making me ache
F#           E            D
   Hey Allison! Hey Allison! Hey Allison!
This sudden detachment from friendship is making me ache
[Solo]
