I re[C]member you [G] well in the [F] Chelsea Hotel [C]
You were talking so [Em7] brave and so [Am] sweet
[C] Giving me [G] head on the [F] unmade [C] bed
While the [F] limousines wait in the [G7] street
{c: }
[Am] Those were the reasons and [F] that was New York
We were [C] running for the [Em7] money and the [Am] flesh
And [F] that was called love for the [C] workers in song
Probably [F] still is for those of them [G7] left
{c: }
Ah but [F] you got away, [C] didn't you babe
You [C] just turned your [Em7] back on the [Am] crowd
[F] You got away, I never once [C] heard you say
I [F] need you, I don't [C] need you
I [F] need you, I don't [C] need you
And [F] all of that jiving a[Am]round [G7]
{c: }
I re[C]member you [G] well in the [F] Chelsea Hotel [C]
You were famous, your [Em7] heart was a [Am] legend
You [C] told me a[G]gain you [F] preferred handsome [C] men
But for [F] me you would make an ex[G7]ception
And [Am] clenching your fist for the [F] ones like us
Who are o[C]pressed by the [Em7] figures of [Am] beauty
[F] You fixed yourself, you said, [C] "Well never mind
We are [F] ugly but we have the [G7] music."
{c: }
And then [F] you got away, [C] didn't you babe
You [C] just turned your [Em7] back on the [Am] crowd
[F] You got away, I never once [C] heard you say
I [F] need you, I don't [C] need you
I [F] need you, I don't [C] need you
And [F] all of that jiving a[Am]round [G7]
