Chelsea Hotel No. 2  Leonard Cohen

Capo 5th fret
Intro
[C]  
I rem[C]ember you w[G]ell in the Ch[F]elsea Hot[C]el
You were talking so br[G]ave and so sw[Am]eet
G[C]iving me h[G]ead on the [F]unmade b[C]ed
While the l[F]imousines wait in the str[G]eet
Th[Am]ose were the reasons and th[F]at was New York
We were r[C]unning for the m[E/B]oney and the fl[Am]esh
And th[F]at was called love for the w[C]orkers in song
Probably st[F]ill is for those of them l[G]eft
Ah but y[F]ou got away, d[C]idn't you babe
You just turned your b[E/B]ack on the cr[Am]owd
Y[F]ou got away, I never once h[C]eard you say
I n[F]eed you, I don't n[C]eed you
I n[F]eed you, I don't n[C]eed you
And [F]all of that jiving ar[Am]ound[G]
I remember you well in 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 fist for the ones like us
Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty
You fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind
We are ugly but we have the music "
And then you got away, didn't you babe
You just turned your back on the crowd
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 jiving around
I don't m[C]ean to sugg[G]est that I loved you th[F]e best[C]
I can't keep track of [G]each fallen r[Am]obin
I rem[C]ember you w[G]ell in the Ch[F]elsea Hot[C]el
That's [F]all, I don't even think of you that [G]often
