Introduction:  G5   D5   E5   F5  

 Bm                                               F# 
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
 A                                           E 
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
 G                                                 D 
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
 Em 
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
 F# 
I had to stop for the night
 Bm                                                             F# 
There she stood in the doorway,   I heard the mission bell
 A                                                                                   E 
And I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or this could be hell
 G                                               D 
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way

    Welcome to the Hotel California
                F#5                                                                                       B5 
    Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
                                                                     D5 
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
          E5                                                                                   F#5 
    Any time of year... any time of year... you can find it here
 Bm                                                     F# 
Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends, uh!
 A                                                                       E 
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
 G                                                               D 
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
 Em                                           F# 
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
 Bm                                                   F# 
So I called up the captain, "Please bring me my wine," he said
 A                                                                           E 
"We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
 G                                                                             D 
And still those voices are calling from far away
 Em                                                                           F# 
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say
                                                         D5 
    Welcome to the Hotel California
                F#5                                                                                       B5 
    Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
                                                                     D5 
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
          E5                                                                                   F#5 
    Any time of year... any time of year... you can find it here
 Bm                                           F# 
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice, and she said,
 A                                                               E 
"We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
 G                                                         D 
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
 Em                                                                                           F# 
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
 Bm                                         F# 
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
 A                                                                         E 
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
 G                                                                   D 
"Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
 Em                                                                     F# 
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"
