Chelsea Hotel
Dan Bern
G Harmonica
G D/F# Em
I still smell tobacco on my fingers
C D
my breath reeks of pot and wine and sex
G D/F# Em
my eyes open up like they haven't in years
C D
so I won't miss what ever happens next
Bm C
you call me a thief, all right I' m a thief
Bm Am7 C (D)
Grab your summons, come and ring my bell
G D/F# Em C C/B G
I'll be making love with my baby in the Chel - sea hotel
I told you to meet me at eight o'clock
I said I' d be drinking at the bar
I drove between Newark and La Guardia
trying to return a rented car
We keep missing connections today
but tomorrow would be just as well
I gotta go make love with my baby in the Chelsea hotel
I've been walking all around your neighborhood
My former love
It seems as far away and as sad to me
as those rain clouds above
I hope you're happy in what ever you're doing
I hope your doing well
And please don't try to contact me at the Chelsea hotel
Cm Gm
I was starting to think
the world was going to end when the calendar turns
but now you're here I see the future baby
Cm Ab D
and they can let the calendar burn
new love is beautiful
but new love is sad
new love brings back all the old loves
that you've ever had
I put out a casting call
and you cast a spell
and we're practicing for the millennium making love at the Chelsea hotel
Harmonica solo
so who knows what tomorrow brings
but I know where I'll be waking up
let's just listen to our breath tonight
and the breeze through the window that you opened up
can you feel our hearts beating
which one's yours, which one's mine, who can tell
just another day of making love at the Chelsea hotel
spend all day and night making love at the Chelsea hotel
Harmonica
