2006 Honda Civic EX turned off wouldn't start, all lights work and windows but only clicks when ignition is turned over

Put new alternator on an the key has a chip but, the key was taped kind of when I got it. I just recently got the car an the person I got it from said it been sitting a little while. Dad she an her daughter stopped at a rest area an used the restroom. When that came back out an went to start car it would not start. She had it towed to her house an it has set since.
