[B] [Bm] On and off desert highway, [F#] cool wind in my hair.
[A] Warm smell of kaleidos [E] rising up through the air.
[G] Up ahead in the distance, [D] sun was shimmering light.
[Em] It grew heavy and my sight grew dim.
[F#] I had to stop for the night.
[Bm] Then she stood in the [F#m] doorway, [F#] heard the emission bell.
[A] I was thinking to [Bm] myself, this [E] could be heaven, or this could be hell.
[G] Then she lit up a [D] candle, she showed me the way.
[E] [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 [Bm] place, such a lovely [F#m] place.
[D] [G] Plenty of room at the Hotel [D] California.
[Em] Any time of year, any time of [A] year, you [F#] can find it here.
[Bm] Her mind is dipping, it's kissing dead.
[F#] She got the Mercedes Benz.
[A] She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys.
[E] She calls friends.
[G] Help me dance with your garden, [D] sweet summer sleigh.
[E] [A] [Em] Some dance to remember, [F#] some dance to forget.
[Bm] So I called up the [F#m] captain, [F#] please bring me my wine.
[A] He said, we haven't had that spirit here [E] since 1969.
[A] [G] And still those voices are calling [D] from far away.
[E] [A] Wake [Em] you up in the middle of the [F#] night, just to hear them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel [D] California.
[G]
[D] [F#] Such a lovely place, such a lovely [F#m] [Bm] place, such a [A] lovely place.
[D]
[F#m] [G] Been living it up at the Hotel [D] California.
[E] What a nice [A] [Em] surprise, what a nice surprise.
[F#] Bring your alibis,
[Bm] mirrors on the ceiling, [F#] pink champagne on ice.
And she [A] said, we are all just prisoners here [E] of our own device.
And [G] in the master chambers, [D] we gathered for the feast.
[Em] We stabbed it with a steeling knife, [F#] but they just can't kill the beast.
[Bm] The last thing I remember, [F#] running for the door.
[A] I had to find the passage back [E] to the place I was before.
[G] Relax, let the night man [D] show you around to the city.
[Em] You can check out any time you [F#] like, but you can never leave.
