BmOn a dark desert highway
F#Cool wind in my hair
AWarm smell of Colitas
ERising up through the air
GUp ahead in the distance
DI saw a shimmering light
EmMy head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
F#I had to stop for the night
BmThere she stood in the doorway
F#I heard the mission bell
AAnd I was thinking to myself this could be-
EHeaven or this could be Hell
GThen she lit up a candle
DAnd she showed me the way
EmThere were voices down the corridor
F#I thought I heard them say
Chorus:
G DWelcome to the Hotel California
F#Such a lovely place
BmSuch a lovely face
G DPlenty of room at the Hotel Cali-fornia
Em F#Any time of year - You can find it here.
BmHer mind is Tiffany twisted
F#She got the Mercedes Benz - uh-huh
AShe got alot of pretty, pretty boys
EThat she calls friends
GHow they dance in the court yard
DSwee--eet summer sweat
EmSome dance to remember
F#some dance to forget
BmSo I called up the captain
F#Please bring me my wine - he said
AWe haven't had that spirit here since
ENineteen sixty nine
GAnd still those voices are calling from
DFaa--aar awaa--aay
EmWake you up in the middle of the night
F#Just to hear them say
Chorus:
G DWelcome to the Hotel California
F#Such a lovely place
BmSuch a lovely face
G DThey're livin' it up at the Hotel Cali-fornia
EmWhat a nice surprise
F#Bring your alibis
BmMirrors on the ceiling
F#Pink champagne on ice - and she said
AWe are all just prisoners here
EOf our own device
GAnd in the masters chambers
DThey gathered for their feast
EmThey stab it with their steely knives - but they
F#just can't kill the beast
BmLast thing I remember,- I was
F#Running for the door
AI had to find the passage back, to the
Eplace I was before
GRelax said the night man we are
DProgrammed to receive
EmYou can check out any time you like
F#But you can never leave
