I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
Em7 Em7 A A
You were talking so brave and so sweet
C C G G F F C C
Giving me head on the unmade bed
F F G7 G7
While the limousines wait in the street
Am Am F F
Those were the reasons and that was New York
C C Em7 Em7 Am Am
We were running for the money and the flesh
F F C C
And that was called love for the workers in song
F F G7 G7
Probably still is for those of them left

F F C C
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe
C C Em7 Em7 Am Am
You just turned your back on the crowd
F F C C
You got away, I never once heard you say
F F C C
I need you, I don't need you
F F C C
I need you, I don't need you
F F Am Am G7 G7
And all of that jiving around

C C G G F F C C
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
Em7 Em7 Am Am
You were famous, your heart was a legend
C C G G F F C C
You told me again you preferred handsome men
F F G7 G7
But for me you would make an exception
Am Am F F
And clenching your fist for the ones like us
C C Em7 Em7 Am Am
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty
F F C C
You fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,
F F G7 G7
We are ugly but we have the music"

F F C C
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe
C C Em7 Em7 Am Am
You just turned your back on the crowd
F F C C
You got away, I never once heard you say
F F C C
I need you, I don't need you
F F C C
I need you, I don't need you
F F Am Am G7 G7
And all of that jiving around

C C G G F F C C
I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best
Em7 Em7 Am Am
I can't keep track of each fallen robin
C C G G F F C C
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
F F G7 G7
That's all, I don't even think of you that often
