[Em] [F#]
[Bm] On a dark desert highway, [F#] cool wind in my hair, [A] warm smell of curly dust, [E] rising up through the air.
[G] Up ahead in the distance, [D] I saw a shimmering light.
[Em] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, [F#] had to stop for the [Bm] night.
There she stood in the [E] doorway, [F#] I heard the mission bell, [A] but I was thinking to myself,
[E] this could be heaven or this could be hell.
[G] She lit up a candle, [D] and she showed me the way.
[Em] There were voices down the corridor, [F#] thought I heard them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel [D] California.
[F#] Such a lovely place, such a lovely place, [B] such a [Bm] lovely place.
[F#] [G] Plenty of room at the Hotel [D] California.
[Em] Anytime of year, anytime of year, you [F#] can find a hero.
[Bm] Her mind is stiff and twisted, [F#] she got the Mercedes [A] Benz.
She got a lot of pretty, pretty [E] boys, and she calls friends.
[G] How they dance in the courtyard, [D] sweet summer sweat.
[Em] Some dance to remember, [F#] some dance to [Bm] forget.
So I called up the captain, [F#] please bring me my wine.
He [A] said, we haven't had that spirit here [E] since 1969.
[G] And still those voices are calling [D] from far away.
[Em] Wake you up in the middle of the [F#] night, just to hear them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel [D] California.
[F#] Such a lovely place, such a lovely [B] place, such a [Bm] lovely place.
[G] Living it up at the Hotel [D] California.
[Em] What a nice surprise, what a nice surprise.
[F#] Bring your alibis, [Bm] mirrors on the [E] ceiling, [F#] pink champagne on ice.
She [A] said, we are all just prisoners [E] here of our own [G#] device.
[G] And in the master's chambers, [D] they gather for the feast.
[Em] They stab it with their steely knives, [F#] but they just can't kill the [B] beat.
[Bm] Last thing I remember, [F#] I am running for the door.
[A] I had to find the passage back [E] to the place I was before.
[G] Relax at the night land, [D] we are programmed to receive.
[Em] You can check out any time you like, [F#] but you can never [Bm] leave.
