[Verse]
                 E                           
On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
G                     D                        
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
F                        C                       
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
Dm                                      
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
E                          
I had to stop for the night
Am                            E                       
There he stood in the doorway I heard the mission bell
G                                          D                           
And I was thinking to myself this could be Heaven or this could be Hell
F                       C                       
Then he lit up a candle and he showed me the way
Dm                                  E7                        
There were voices down the corridor I thought I heard them say


[Chorus]
F                    C         
Welcome to the Hotel California
       E           
Such a lovely place
       Am     Bm7  C
Such a lovely face ■
F                           C         
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Dm              
Any time of year
        E           
You can find it here


[Verse]
Am                          E                        
His mind is Tiffany twisted he got the Mercedes Bends
G                                   D                    
He got a lot of pretty pretty girls that he calls friends
F                               C                 
How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
Dm                         E    E7             
Some dance to remember and some dance to forget
Am                         E7     E               
So I called up the captain Please bring me my wine
            G                                     D                 
And he said We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixtynine


[Chorus]
F                                    C            
■ And still those voices are calling from far away
Dm                                     E                    
Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say
F                    C         
Welcome to the Hotel California
       E           
Such a lovely place
       Am     Bsus4 C
Such a lovely face  ■
F                                 C         
They're living it up at the Hotel California
       Dm           
What a nice surprise
E                
Bring your alibis

[Verse]
                       E                    
Mirrors on the ceiling pink champagne on ice
            G                              D                
And he said We are all just prisoners here of our own device
F                                 C                     
And in the master's chambers they gathered for the feast
Dm                                             E                        
They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast
    Am                    E                         
The last thing I remember I was running for the door
G                              D                  F     
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
                         C                    Dm     
Relax said the night man We are programmed to receive
                                    E                      
You can check out any time you like but you can never leave


[Chorus]
E7      F            C         
Welcome to the Hotel California
E                  
Such a lovely place
Am            C   
Such a lovely face
F                           C         
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Dm              
Any time of year
E
