Sylvia Hotel Lyrics

CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: G D/F# Em7 C
This is a lonely life
As I know you know too well
I'm thinking of you tonight
Here in the Sylvia Hotel
Smoking a cigarette
Drinking a glass of beer
Catching a conversation
I am trying not to hear
CHORUS:
One more
"Why not, okay"
Guess I'm glad I came
To stare at English Bay
Under all the rain
There's a cat in this bar right now
Twitching his tail away
I called with a soft meow
Maybe he only speaks Francais
You must be safe in bed
Down in your cowboy home
I don't wonder why you left
I wonder why you stayed so long
CHORUS:
One more
"Why not, okay"
I'm glad I came
And here's to English Bay
In the lovely rain
BRIDGE:
I found some matches from Durango in my pocket
But if I let my heart get sad then I can't stop it
And this is a lonely life
Though I think it suits me well
And everything's fine tonight
Here in the Sylvia Hotel
