Chords

F                        C                      Bb                  F
I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel
          F                     C                       Dm
Your voice was so brave and so sweet
        F                C                    Bb              F
You giving me head on the unmade bed
                  Bb                                      C
While the limousines wait in the street
Dm                                       Bb 
Those were the reasons, that was New York,
                F                          A                  Dm
We were running for the money and flesh
        Bb                                                F
And that was called love for the workers in song
                 Bb                                        C
Probably still is for those of them left

          Dm                     Bb
Then you got away, didn't you babe
        F                            A                    Dm
You just turned your back on the crowds
Bb                                             F
You got away, I never once heard you say
Bb                F                             Bb                 F
I need you, I don't need you, I need you, I don't need you
         Bb                       Dm
And all of that jivin' around

I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel
You were famous your heart was a legend
You told me again you preferred handsome men
But for me you would make an exception
And clenching your fists for the ones like us 
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty
Then you fix yourself, you say "Well never mind
We are ugly, but we have the music"

Then you got away, didn't you babe
You just turned your back on the crowds
You got away I never once heard you say
I need you, I don't need you, I need you, I don't need you
And all of that jivin' around

             F                 C                   Bb                      F 
I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best
            F                       C                   Dm
I can't keep track of every fallen robin
          F                        C                      Bb           F
But I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel
            Bb                                              C
That's all, I don't think of you that often
