Th[Bb]ese long lonel[Bb7]y evenings
here [Eb]I am on the [G7]phone
w[Cm]ondering when[F7] she will c[Bb]all
she said she would w[Bb7]rite me
'c[Eb]ause she kn[G7]ows I'm alone
[Cm]but I hear n[C7]othing at [F7]all
[Bb]I'm watiting for a word of love[Am] from [D7]sylvia
Y[Gm]ou'd think she [Gm7]never heard of love[Fm] my[Bb7] sylvia
[Eb]but when I'm with[F/Eb] her Lo[Dm]rd,i for[G7]give her
'cause she's mo[Cm]re than the whole world to me
[F7] there's not[Bb]hing like a word of love from s[Am]ylvi[D7]a
The o[Gm]nly one I'm th[Gm7]inking of is sy[Fm]lvia [Bb7]
f[Eb7]eeling so sad now I'll be so glad now
[Cm]If I just ha[F7]d my sylvi[Bb]a wit[F#7]h me
That o[B]ld weeping [B7]willow
seems to whis[E]per her na[G#7]me
[C#m]why did she [F#7]go awa[B]y
the tears on my pi[B7]llow
they're not[E] hard to ex[G#7]plain
[C#m] there's not[C#7]hing else I can s[C#m]ay
I'm waiting for a word of love f[A#m7]rom sy[D#7]lvia
you[G#m]'d think she ne[G#m7]ver heard of love my[F#m] sylvia[B7]
b[E]ut when I'm[F#/E] with her, [D#m]Lord i fo[G#7]rgive her
'cause she's [C#m]more than the whol[C#7]e world to[C#m] me[F#7]
Ther[B]e's nothing like a word like[A#m7] my sylvia
the[G#m] only one I'm t[G#m7]hinking of i[F#m]s sylv[B7]ia
[E]feeling s[F#/E]o sad no[D#m]w I'd be so gl[G#7]ad now
[C#m]If I just[F#7] had my sy[B]lvia with me
