        I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,

                            G             Am
        You were talking so brave and so sweet;

        C         G           F           C
        Giving me head on the unmade bed,

                  F                        G
        While the limousines wait in the street.

        Am                         F
        Those were the reasons and that was New York,

                C               E/B            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,

                                 E/B         Am
           You just turned your back on the crowd,

           F                          C
           You got away, I never once heard you say:

             F                  C
           "I need you, I don't need you,

             F                 C
           I need you, I don't need you"

               F                   Am       G
           And all of that jiving around.

      C          G           F             C
         I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel:

                               G           Am
         You were famous, your heart was a legend.

             C        G                  F            C
         You told me again you preferred handsome men

                 F                               G
         But for me you would make an exception.

             Am                          F
         And clenching your fist for the ones like us

                    C             E/B        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
           And then you got away, didn't you baby,

                               E/B         Am
           You just turned your back on the crowd,

           F                          C
           You got away, I never once heard you say:

             F                  C
           "I need you, I don't need you,

             F                 C
           I need you, I don't need you"

               F                   Am       G
           And all of that jiving around.

          C           G           F                   C
          I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best,

                                G             Am
          I can't keep track of each fallen robin.

              C          G           F              C
          I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,

                 F                                   G
          That's all, I don't even think of you that often.
