Verse 1
Gmaj7                           Am7     Am7/D
       What's it all about, ...Alfie----------?
      Gmaj7          G6       Bm7    E7
Is it just for the moment we live?
          Em7/A      Am7                       Bm7         Em7
What's it all about   ...when you sort it out,  ...Alfie?
Am7            Am7/D            Gdim
Are we meant ...to take more ...than we give,
   Am7            Am7/D
Or are we meant ...to be kind?


Verse 2
 D9  Daug          G                   Gmaj7   Am7   Am7/D
 And if-----   ...only fools are kind,        Alfie---------,
       Gmaj7        G6         Bm7    E7
Then I guess it is wise to be cruel,
        Am7          Am7/D                     Bm7        Em7
And if life belongs      ...only to the strong, ...Alfie,
     Am7             Am7/D         Gdim
What will you lend ...on an old ...golden rule?


Verse 3
   F#m7            Bb6   Em7/A                        F#m7
As sure as I be - lieve        ...there's a heaven a - bove,   ...Alfie,

  Em7/A         A13sus2  Em7/A       F#m7                        Bb6
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /   /  /  |   I know there's something much more,

  Em7         D7sus4  D7  D7sus4   D7    Daug  Dsus2#5  Daug   Dsus2#5
Something even non  - be  - lie - vers ...can  ...be  - lieve ...in!


Verse 4
     G                  Gmaj7   Am7     Am7/D
  ...I believe in love,         Alfie----------,
C#m7b5               C9               Bm7   Em7
       Without true love we just ex - ist,       ...Alfie,
C#m7b5            C9                   Bm7           Em7     Em7/A
       Until you find the love you've missed you're nothing, Alfie-------!

Verse 5
Am7             Am7/D             Gdim
When you walk ...let your heart...lead the way,
         Am7               Am7/D         G7b9
Then ...you'll find love ...any day,  ...Alfie-------,

  Em7/A   Am7       G7b9           Gmaj9         Gmaj7
