Hotel California

[Intro]

 Am  E7  G  D  F  C  Dm  E7
 Am  E7  G  D  F  C  Dm  E7

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


[Estribillo]

F                                 
Welcome to the Hotel California
      C

E7

                              Am
 place), such a lovely face

F                                 
They're living it up in the Hotel 
                   C
California
Dm                                
Anytime of year (anytime of year) 
                              E7
you can find it here


Am                                
Her mind was tiffany twisted, she 
         E7
got the mercedes benz...uh
G                             
She had a lot of pretty, pretty 
                        D
boys, who she calls friends
F                              
How they dance in the courtyard, 
                    C
sweet summer sweat
Dm                                
Some dance to remember, some dance
      E7
 to forget

Am                        
So I called up the captain, 
             E7
pleeeease bring me my wine...he said
G                             
We haven't had that spirit here 
                           D
since 1969
F                                 
And still those voices are calling
                        C
 from faaaaaaaar awaaaaaay
Dm                             
Wake you up in the middle of the 
                            E7
night, just to hear them say


[Estribillo]

F                                 
Welcome to the Hotel California
      C

E7                                
Such a lovely place (such a lovely
                              Am
 place), such a lovely face
F                                 
They're living it up at the Hotel 
                   C
California
Dm                                
Anytime of year (anytime of year) 
                              E7
you can find it here


Am                              
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink 
E7
champaign on ice...and she said
G                                 
We are all just prisoners here of 
            D
our own device
F                                 
And in the master's chambers, they
             C
 gathered for their feast
Dm                           
They stab it with their steely 
knives but they just can't kill the 
 E7
beast

Am                                
Last thing I remember, I was 
         E7
running for the door
G                                 
I had to find the passage back to 
                       D
the place I was before
F                              
Relax said the night man, we are 
                   C
programmed to receive
Dm                            
You can check out anytime you'd 
                           E7
like, but you can't never leave

 Am  E7  G  D  F  C  Dm  E7
