Leonard Cohen
I rem
F
ember you
C
well in the
Bflat
Chelsea Ho
F
tel,
You were
C
talking so brave and so
Dm
sweet.
F
Giving me
C
head on the
Bflat
unmade bed
F
While the
Bflat
limousines wait in the
C
street
Dm
Those were the reasons and
Bflat
that was New York,
We were
F
running for the
Am/E
money and the
Dm
flesh
And
Bflat
that was called love for the
F
workers in song,
Probably
Bflat
still is for those of them
C
left.
And then
Bflat
you got away,
F
didn't you, baby?
You just turned your
Am/E
back on the
Dm
crowd.
Bflat
You got away, I never once
F
heard you say,
"I
Bflat
need you, I don't
F
need you, I
Bflat
need you, I don't
F
need you,"
And
Bflat
all of that jiving a
Dm
round.
C
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."
C
I don't
F
mean to sug
C
gest that I
Bflat
loved you the
F
best
I can't
F
keep track of
C
each fallen
Dm
robin.
I re
F
member you
C
well in the
Bflat
Chelsea Ho
F
tel,
That
Bflat
all, I don't think of you that
C
often.
