Adams, Ryan - Hotel Chelsea Nights Lyrics
How long's it gonna be, babe
Before I get over you, doll
I bet it's gonna be a while now, kid
What with you living right up the hall
Snow and rain falling through the sheets
In fact I'm tired of 23rd Street
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night
Maybe you just didn't read me right
The lights went out and you just didn't understand
I played your song; I got the melody all wrong
Wound your shit up like some rubber bands
Fire and rain blowing through the streets
In fact I'm tired of 23rd Street
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night
I feel like getting rid of all my things
Maybe just disappear into the fog
The traffic roars; my stomach screams
Like a gang of angry dogs
And I'm tired of living here in this hotel
TV and dirty magazines
And I'm just trying to get a little sleep
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night
Strung out like some Christmas lights
Out there in the Chelsea night

"Strung out like some Christmas lights"...."we'll just shoot up like some rubber bands".....holy shit. Heroin addiction is a hard thing to make beautiful, but I think he did it.
brian anderson still not beautiful or even romantic
I give you my word
I appreciate your sentiment though, it's an amazing song
Not purple rain
Also correct lol
I love this song.... He was a neighbor in the hotel when I lived there and was always super-nice.
Magical song from an amazing musician.
Holy 23rd street Batman. I can't stop listening to this song.
purple rain ....
yeah - so is, this was him finding himself/own style in the end.
I was thinking the same
I was thinking Tea for the Tillerman with the intro with a bit of Whiter Shade Of Pale & Lennon ;)
Overmassive reverb yeah
Just listened to that lol,, true story!
How longs it gonna be, babe
Before I get over you, doll
I bet it's gonna be a while now,
This song is much better than Purple rain. Adams is a better songwriter than Prince. The intros sound familiar because its a common blues/jazz riff that goes back way before either of them.
Prince disliked this song.......
Is that because it's loads better than purple rain?
I think Prince earned his right to dislike what he wanted . BUT, I like this song. For that matter I like Adams better than Prince, but who cares.
Duane Westcot Icare
@HarryPowell7
can't listen to purple rain without this song in my head
I think he did it this way
@HarryPowell7 Very True, but it's so good you can't fault him for it.
this stuff sends shivers all through my body
Happy Weekend all.......
omg... i love this song so effing much... <3
dude, this song is just all kinds of amazing.
