Hotel California
[Verse]
F#m C#7
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
E B
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
D A
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
Bm
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
C#
I had to stop for the night
F#m C#7
There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell
E
And I was thinking to myself
B
This could be heaven or this could be hell
D A
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
Bm
There were voices down the corridor,
C#
I thought I heard them say…
[Chorus]
D A
Welcome to the Hotel California.
C#7 F#m
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
D A
There's plenty of room at the Hotel California
Bm C#
Any time of year, (any time of year) You can find it here
[Verse]
F#m C#7
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes bends
E B
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys she calls friends
D A
How they danced in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Bm C#
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
F#m C#7
So I called up the captain; Please bring me my wine (he said)
E B
We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
D A
and still those voices are calling from far away
Bm
Wake you up in the middle of the night
C#
Just to hear them say…
[Chorus]
D A
Welcome to the Hotel California.
C#7 F#m
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
D A
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
Bm C#
What a nice surprise, (what a nice surprise) Bring your alibis
[Verse]
F#m C#7
Mirrors on the ceiling; the pink champagne on ice (and she said)
E B
We are all just prisoners here, of our own device
D A
and in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
Bm
They stab it with their steely knives but they
C#
just can't kill the beast
F#m C#7
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
E B
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
D A
"Relax" said the night man; we are programmed to receive
Bm
You can check out any time you like
C#
But you can never leave…
