Cheryl Wheeler - Sylvia Hotel Chords

CAPO: 4th Fret




INTRO: G  D/F#  Em7  C

G                D/F#
This is a lonely life 
   Em7                 Cadd9
As I know you know too well 
    G                 D/F#
I'm thinking of you tonight 
            Em7      Cadd9
Here in the Sylvia Hotel


G             D/F#
Smoking a cigarette 
Em7                 Cadd9
Drinking a glass of beer 
G                D/F#
Catching a conversation 
     Em7           Cadd9
I am trying not to hear


CHORUS:
    D/F#
One more 
     G     Cadd9
"Why not, okay"
D/F#             G
Guess I'm glad I came 
   Dsus2/F# G       Cadd9
To stare at English Bay
              Dsus2/F# 
Under all the rain


          G                     D/F#
There's a cat in this bar right now 
Em7                 Cadd9
Twitching his tail away 
  G                  D/F#
I called with a soft meow 
         Em7             Cadd9
Maybe he only speaks Francais


G                   D/F#
You must be safe in bed 
Em7                 Cadd9
Down in your cowboy home 
  G                    D/F#
I don't wonder why you left 
         Em7               Cadd9
I wonder why you stayed so long


CHORUS:
    D/F#
One more 
     G     Cadd9
"Why not, okay"
D/F#       G
I'm glad I came
    Dsus2/F#  G       Cadd9
And here's to English Bay 
              Dsus2/F# 
In the lovely rain


BRIDGE:
             Am7            C           Dsus2/F#
I found some matches from Durango in my pocket 
         Am7              C                D/F#     Dsus2/F#
But if I let my heart get sad then I can't stop it 


    G                D/F#
And this is a lonely life 
       Em7                 Cadd9
Though I think it suits me well 
    G                   D/F#
And everything's fine tonight 
            Em7      Cadd9
Here in the Sylvia Hotel
