[Intro]

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

          Am                                     E7
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                                                                  E7
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night
Am                                               E7
There she stood in the door way, I heard the mission bell
G                                                            D
And I was thinking to myself this could heaven or this could be hell
F                                   C
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
Dm                                                          E7
There were voices down in the corridor, I thought I heard them say


[Estribillo]

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


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

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


[Estribillo]

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


Am                              E7
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champaign 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 their feast
Dm                                                                E7
They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast

Am                                         E7
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 night man, we are programmed to receive
Dm                                                       E7
You can check out anytime you'd like, but you can't never leave

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