Sylvia
(Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey, Mark Webber)

E MajorE
You look just like Sylvia
C# minorC#m
(Well, you look like her to me)
E MajorE                    AbmAbm
The way she wore her hair then
A augmentedA                           A augmentedA
Oh, the way she used to be
F# minorF#m
I've not seen her for a long time
E MajorE                             C# minorC#m
Though I've heard she's still around
BB
Her father's living with some girl
A augmentedA
Who's a year younger than her

AbmAbm                 A augmentedA
She's living in the country now, yeah
AbmAbm                     A augmentedA
Oh, she's trying to get better
AbmAbm                A augmentedA
Her beauty was her only crime
        Bsus4Bsus4        BB
Yeah, I remember Sylvia


Chorus
E MajorE
So keep believing
    AbAb          A augmentedA
And do what you do
F#F#                     C# minorC#m             BB         A augmentedA
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better
E MajorE
And please stop asking
          AbAb             A augmentedA
What it's got to do with you
F#F#                          C# minorC#m       BB           A augmentedA
Oh keep believing, 'cos you know that you deserve better

Who's this man you're talking to?
Can't you see what he wants to do?
He thinks if he stands near enough
Then he will look as good as you
And he don't care about your problems
He just wants to show his friends
I guess I'm just the same as him
Oh I just didnt know it then

I never understood you really
And I know it's too late now
You didnt ask to be that way
Oh I'm sorry Sylvia

So keep believing
And do what you do
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better
And please stop asking
What it's got to do with you
Oh keep believing, 'cos you know that you deserve better
