Lyrics
Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel So many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel Leonard knew Janice very well In Room 424 of the Chelsea Hotel Bob wrote Blonde On Blonde in Room two one one Sara stayed down the hall, and theyd soon be joined as one Andy and his Chelsea Girls were there in four four two The hotel was like a Bohemian circus or zoo Eddie set fire to her room one zero five Andys Tormented It Girl was lucky to survive And Eddies love for Bob was in vain The lonely little girl broke and didnt remain And the ghost of Mary walks the 5th floor Floating through dreaming walls and doors Her husband drowned on Titanics deck She waited in vain and then hung herself by the neck The haunt of the stars and children of the wealthy Abandoned by their parents at the Hotel Chelsea Dylan Thomas died there in his room After too many whiskeys had been consumed Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel Freddie thought Sid was rather atrocious He called him Sid Ferocious Then Sid went and viciously stabbed Nancy dead In the bathroom of Room one hundred But Sid just couldnt be saved And they scattered Sids ashes on Nancys grave That made the Rabbis of the day rave They said Sid wasnt of The Faith and that he was depraved The first floor was for Junkies, Toms and pimps Reserved for their all night high jinks In the cheap small rooms many died Either by overdose or suicide Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel Stanley shouts Pay me your rent, how long are you gonna keep me waiting? Okay if youre an artist then you can pay me with a painting It was Bohemia frozen in time But it was coming to the end of the line And then the curtain fell On the Chelsea Hotel Now the walls are bare and the paintings have all gone The last of the Bohemians are either dead or have moved on Just one or two of the old residents remain But they know that things will never be the same No, they can never be the same Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel And then the curtain fell On the Chelsea Hotel Now the walls are bare and the paintings have all gone The last of the Bohemians are either dead or have moved on Just one or two of the old residents remain But they know that things will never be the same No, they can never be the same Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel So many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel And then the curtain fell On the Chelsea Hotel Now the walls are bare and the paintings have all gone The last of the Bohemians are either dead or have moved on Just one or two of the old residents remain But they know that things will never be the same No, they can never be the same, never be the same The Chelsea Hotel No, never be the same The Chelsea Hotel No, things will never be the same The Chelsea Hotel At the Chelsea Hotel At the Chelsea Hotel Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel Theres so many tales to tell From inside the Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel The Chelsea Hotel
