Capo 2nd fret
Am
On a dark desert highway
Em
Cool wind in my hair -
G
Warm smell of coletus
D
Rising up thru the air
F
Up ahead in the distance
C
I saw a shimmer of light;
Dm
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim,
Em - E
I had to stop for the night -
And there she stood in the doorway,
I heard the mission bell;
And I was thinking to myself,
"This could be heaven and this could be
hell..."
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way,
There were voices down the corridor,
And I heard'em say -
F
C
"Welcome to the Hotel "California",
Dm
Such a lovely place,
Am
Such a lovely face,
Em- E -F C
Plenty of room in the Hotel "California",
Dm
Any time of year (Any time of year)
E
You can find it here..."
Her mind is tiffany-twisted,
She got a Mersedes-Benz;
She got a lot, a lot of pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the cortyard -
Sweet summer sweat;
Some dance to remember,
Some dance to forget...
So I called up the Captain,
"Please, bring me my wine!"(He said) -
"We haven't had that spirit here since
Nineteen sixty-nine...
But still those voices are comin' from fa-ar
away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night,
Just to hear'em say,
"Welcome to the Hotel "California',
Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face,
Living it up in the Hotel "California".
What a nice surprise, When you're out of
lies..."
Mirrors on the ceiling,
They drink champaign on ice,(And she said,)
"We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device;
In the Master's chambers
They gathered for the fiest -
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast!"
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door,
I tried to get my passage back
To the place I was before,
"Relax," - said the nightman,-
"We are all programmed to receive,
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave!..."
