Verse 1
(C major)
I re (C major) member you well (G major) in the (F major) Chelsea Hotel (C major)
You were (C major) talking so (G major) brave and so sweet (A minor)
(C major) Giving me head (G major) on the unmade (F major) bed (C major)
While the (F major) limousines wait in the street (G major)
Those (A minor) were the reasons
and (F major) that was New York
We were running (C major) for the (E/B) money and the (A minor) flesh
And (F major) that was called love
for the workers (C major) in song
Probably (F major) still is for those of them left (G major)
Bridge 1
Ah, but (F major) you got away, (C major) didn't you babe?
You (C major) just turned your (G/B) back on the crowd (A minor)
(F major) You got away, I never once heard (C major) you say
I need (F major) you, I don't (C major) need you
I (F major) need you, I don't (C major) need you
And all (F major) of that jiving around (A minor) (G major)

Verse 2
I re (C major) member you well (G major) in the Chel (F major) sea Hotel (C major)
You were famous, (C major) your heart (G major) was a leg (A minor) end
You (C major) told me again
(G major) you preferred (F major) handsome men (C major)
But for me (F major) you would make an exception (G major)
And clenching (A minor) your fist
for the ones (F major) like us
Who are op (C major) pressed by the (E/B) figures of beauty (A minor)
You (F major) fixed yourself, you said, (C major) "well, never mind
We are ugly (F major) but we have the (G major) music"
Bridge 2
And then (F major) you got away, (C major) didn't you baby?
You (C major) just turned your (G/B) back on the crowd (A minor)
(F major) You got away, I never once heard (C major) you say
I need (F major) you, I don't (C major) need you
I (F major) need you, I don't (C major) need you
And all (F major) of that jiving around (A minor) (G major)
Verse 3
I don't (C major) mean to suggest (G major)
that I loved you the (F major) best (C major)
I can't (C major) keep track of each (G major) fallen rob (A minor) in
I re (C major) member you well (G major) in the Chel (F major) sea Hotel (C major)
That's all, (F major) I don't even think of you that often (G major)
