Sylvia Said

Intro: G  F  G  F  G  G7

C            Em   Am             G    
Wish I could sail in a big black boat
F                C         G
With a big white sail over me
C               Em    Am             G    
And once in the while I'd pull into port
F          C           G
Drink some wine with a girl

Chorus:
F          C    F       C
But Sylvia said come to bed
F       C    Dm G        C
It's so good to have you here

Sometime ago, when time past so slow
Too weak to know where to go
But now thinking back on what strikes me the most
Is I've made up my mind long before

Chorus

So I'll cope with you, don't cope at all
So let's leave it all to the chef
Please send my regrets in case I forget
To PO Box nobody home                        

Chorus
