Chelsea Hotel Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I remember you [G]well at [F]the Chelsea Hotel
[C]You were talking so bra[G]ve
and [Am]so sweet
Giving [C]me [G]head on that [F]unmade [G]bed
[C]While the limousines [G]wait in the street
[Am]Those were the reasons
[F]That was New York
we [G]were [C]running for the
[Em]money and the [Am]flair
And [F]that was called love
for the [C]workers in song
Probably [F]still is for those [G]of them left
[Am]You got away, oh didn't [C]you babe
You just turn [G]your back on the [Am]crowd
Oh, [F]you got away
I [C]never once heard you say
that [F]I need you
I don't [C]need you
I need [F]you
I don't [C]need you
And [F]all of them jiving [Am]around
I remem[C]ber you [G]well at the [F]Chelsea Hotel
[C]You were famous,
[Em]your heart was [Am]a legend
You told [C]me again
[G]that you preferred [F]handsome men
[C]But for me, you would make an exception
[G]And[Am] clenching your fists
for the [F]ones like us
Who are oppressed [C]by
the [G]figures of [Am]beauty
You [F]fixed yourself, you said,
[C]well, never mind
[G]We are [F]ugly, but we [G]have the music
And [Am]you got away, didn't y[C]ou babe
You just turned [Em]your back on the [Am]crowd
You [F]got away, I [C]never once heard you say that [F]I need you,
I [C]don't need you
Oh [F]I need you, I d[C]on't need you
[G]and [F]all of that jiving [C]around[Am]
I don't [F]mean [C]to suggest
[G]that I l[F]ove you the best[C]
I can't keep track of each [G]fallen robin
[Am]But I remember y[C]ou well [G]at
the [F]Chelsea Hotel
[C]That's all, I don't think of you
that of[G]ten
