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