C Dm (4x)

   G             Dm
oh silvia, I was dancing to Michael Jackson
   G              Dm
oh silvia, when I heard your german accent
   G                  Dm                       C         Dm
oh silvia, and I went down on my knees for her majesty     
           G
your royal highness
        Dm       
is that how you shall be adressed
       G             Dm
oh her highness, I'm always at your service
       G                  Dm                C          /D
oh her highness, will you listen when I now confess


          Em               Dm
I've been hurting again, a cold black diamond
    Em                       Dm
the same kind of pain that I had when I was seven
       Dm                         C       Dm    C    Dm
do you remember when I shook your hand


   G                 Dm
oh silvia, I took my bike to the cemetery
   G             Dm
oh silvia, and I claimed my territory
   G                Dm
oh silvia, smoked a cigarette
                        C                /D
blew smoke rings in the face of death
     
         Em                             Dm
and this town will be cold when it gets hit by a comet
       Em                             Dm
by the harb we found a boat with your name written on it
          Dm                       Fmaj7
and I had blood in my mouth when I spit
   C          Fmaj7   C   Fmaj7
oh silvia

       G...
oh her highness, I heard you say in some interview
that feminism was something that didn't suit you
a lack of interest perhaps 
or maybe your just stupid and inbreed

      Em                    Dm
but I still remember when I saw you as a godness
     Em                     Dm
your picture on my wall, so gentle and modest
       Dm                    Fmaj7       
do you see these tears in my face
  Dm               Fma7
I thought we had a deal
         Dm                 Fmaj7
that the one who falls from grace
      Dm            Fmaj
would be the one to kneel
         G6           C
now it's just you and me, Silvia
                      Fmaj7
don't shed no useless tears
   C                                       Fmaj7
oh silvia, no one will care in a hundred years
C                              Fmaj7
  no one will ever forget your name

they'll look after your grave
                 C
but it's not the same, you say
                      Fmaj7
now it's just you and me, Silvia
                  C    Fmaj7
it's just you and me
                  C    Fmaj7
it's just you and me

C Fmaj7 (repetera, fade out...)
