C Cmaj9 F C
I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel,
C F
you were talking so brave and so sweet,
C Cmaj9 F C
giving me head on the unmade bed,
C G
while the limousines wait in the street.
Am F
Those were the reasons and that was New York,
C Cmaj9 Am
we were running for the money and the flesh.
F C
And that was called love for the workers in song
F G
probably still is for those of them left.
F C
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe,
C Cmaj9 Am
you just turned your back on the crowd,
F C
you got away, I never once heard you say,
F Am
I need you, I don't need you,
F C Cmaj9
I need you, I don't need you
F G Am
and all of that jiving around.
C Cmaj9 F C
I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel
C F
you were famous, your heart was a legend.
C Cmaj9 F C
You told me again you preferred handsome men
C G
but for me you would make an exception.
Am F
And clenching your fist for the ones like us
C Cmaj9 Am
who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,
F C
you fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,
F G
we are ugly but we have the music."
F C
Ah but you got away, didn't you babe,
C Cmaj9 Am
you just turned your back on the crowd,
F C
you got away, I never once heard you say,
F Am
I need you, I don't need you,
F C Cmaj9
I need you, I don't need you
F G Am
and all of that jiving around.
C Cmaj9 F C
I don't mean to confess that I loved you the best,
C F
I can't keep track of each fallen robin.
C Cmaj9 F C
I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel,
C G
that's all, I don't even think of you that often.
