Chelsea Hotel

• E

E B A E 
I remember you well in the chelsea hotel, 
E B C#m 
You were talking so brave and so sweet, 
E B A 
Giving me head on the unmade bed, 
E A B 
While the limousines wait in the street. 
C#m A 
Those were the reasons and that was new york, 
E B C#m 
We were running for the money and the flesh. 
A E 
And that was called love for the workers in song 
A B 
Probably still is for those of them left. 

Cm A 
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe, 
E B Cm 
You just turned your back on the crowd, 
A E 
You got away, i never once heard you say, 
A E 
I need you, i don't need you, 
A E 
I need you, i don't need you 
A C#m                       B 
And all of that jiving around. 

E B A E 
I remember you well in the chelsea hotel 
E B C#m 
You were famous, your heart was a legend. 
E B A E 
You told me again you preferred handsome men 
A B 
But for me you would make an exception. 
C#m A 
And clenching your fist for the ones like us 
E B C#m 
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty, 
A E 
You fixed yourself, you said, "well never mind, 
A B 
We are ugly but we have the music." 

Cm A 
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe, 
E B Cm 
You just turned your back on the crowd, 
A E 
You got away, i never once heard you say, 
A E 
I need you, i don't need you, 
A E 
I need you, i don't need you 
A C#m                       B 
And all of that jiving around. 

E B A E 
I don't mean to suggest that i loved you the best, 
E B C#m 
I can't keep track of each fallen robin. 
E B A E 
I remember you well in the chelsea hotel, 
        A                                 B 
That's all, i don't even think of you that often.
