Am                        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 she 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 she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
Dm                                   E  
There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say: 


F                           C 
Welcome to the Hotel California
       Dm                                            Am Fill  
Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
F                                  C   
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Dm                                          E  
Any time of year... any time of year... you can find it here 


Am                           E  
Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
G                                    D  
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
F                                C  
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Dm                      E  
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget 
Am                          E  
So I called up the captain, "Please bring me my wine," he said
G                                      D  
"We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
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
       Dm                                            Am Fill 
Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
F                               C   
Livin it up at the Hotel California
       Dm                                                  E  
What a nice surprise... what a nice surprise... bring your alibis 


Am                      E  
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice, and she said,
G                                D  
"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  
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
G                                     D  
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
F                                  C  
"Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
Dm                                   E  
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave" 

F                           C    
Welcome to the Hotel California
       Dm                                            Am Fill
Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
F                               C   
Livin it up at the Hotel California
       Dm                                                  E  
What a nice surprise... what a nice surprise... bring your alibis
