On a dark desert highway,
G#7
cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
ri sing up through the air
Up ahead in the distance,
E
I saw a shimmering light
F#m
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
G#7
I had to stop for the night
Th ere she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be he aven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle,
E
and she showed me the way
F#m7
There were voices down the corridor,
G#7
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California.
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
There's Plenty of room
at the Hotel California
Anyti me of year,(anytime of year)
You can find us here...
He r mind is Tiffany twisted,
G#7
She got a mercedes benz
She got alot of pretty pretty boys
th at she calls friends
How they danced in the court
yard sweet summer sweat
So me dance to remember some dance to forget
So I called up the captain
G#7
Please bring me my wine (he said)
We haven't had that spirit here since 19 69
and still those voice are
calling from far away
F#m7
Wake you up in the middle of the night
G#7
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California.
Such a lovely place, such a lo vely face
A
They livin' it up at the
Hotel California
Wh at a nice surprise,
br ing your alibis
Mi rrors on the ceiling the pink
champagne on ice (an she said)
We are all just prisoners here ,
of our own device
and in the master's chambers,
E
They gathered for the feast
The y stab it with their steely knives
G#7
but they just can't kill the beast
La st thing I remember,
I was running for the door
I had find the passage back to the pl ace
I was before
'Relax' said the night man;
E
we are programmed to receive
F#m7

But you can never leave
