Hotel California
[Verse]
Em B7
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
D A
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
C G
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
Am
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
B
I had to stop for the night
Em B7
There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell
D
And I was thinking to myself
A
This could be heaven or this could be hell
C G
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
Am
There were voices down the corridor,
B
I thought I heard them say…
[Chorus]
C G
Welcome to the Hotel California.
B7 Em
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
C G
There's plenty of room at the Hotel California
Am B
Any time of year, (any time of year) You can find it here
[Verse]
Em B7
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes bends
D A
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys she calls friends
C G
How they danced in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Am B
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
Em B7
So I called up the captain; Please bring me my wine (he said)
D A
We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
C G
and still those voices are calling from far away
Am
Wake you up in the middle of the night
B
Just to hear them say…
[Chorus]
C G
Welcome to the Hotel California.
B7 Em
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
C G
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
Am B
What a nice surprise, (what a nice surprise) Bring your alibis
[Verse]
Em B7
Mirrors on the ceiling; the pink champagne on ice (and she said)
D A
We are all just prisoners here, of our own device
C G
and in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
Am
They stab it with their steely knives but they
B
just can't kill the beast
Em B7
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
D A
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
C G
"Relax" said the night man; we are programmed to receive
Am
You can check out any time you like
B
But you can never leave…
