Chords with lyrics
C majorC FF C majorC
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
G+G A minorAm
You were talking so brave and so sweet;
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
Giving me head on the unmade bed,
FF G+G
While the limousines waiting the street.
A minorAm FF
Those were the reasons and that was New York,
C majorC E/B A minorAm
We were running for the money and the flesh.
FF C majorC
And that was called love for the workers in song,
FF G+G
Probably still is for those of them left.
FF C majorC
Ah, but you got away, didn't you babe,
E/B A minorAm
You just turned your back on the crowd,
FF C majorC
You got away,I never once heard you say:
FF C majorC
"I need you,I don't need you,
FF C majorC
I need you, I don't need you"
FF A minorAm G+G
And all of that jiving around.
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel:
G+G A minorAm
You were famous, your heart was a 🏷Legend.
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
You told me again you preferred handsome men
FF G+G
But for me you would make an exception.
A minorAm FF
And clenching your fist for the ones like us
C majorC E/B A minorAm
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,
FF C majorC
You fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,
FF G+G
We are ugly but we have the music."
FF C majorC
And then you got away, didn't you baby,
E/B A minorAm
You just turned your back on the crowd,
FF C majorC
You got away, I never once heard you say:
FF C majorC
"I need you,I don't need you,
FF C majorC
I need you, I don't need you"
FF A minorAm G+G
And all of that jiving around.
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best,
G+G A minorAm
I can't keep track of each fallen robin.
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
FF G+G
That's all, aI don't even think of you that often.
