Eagles - Hotel California (plus TABS)
Capo 7
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair,
Dsus2 A9/C#
Warm smell of 'colitas' rising up through the air,
C G
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light.
Am7
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim,
B7
I had to stop for the night.
Em B7/D#
There she stood in the doorway. I heard the mission bell,
Dsus2 A9/C#
And I was thinking to myself "This could be heaven or this could be hell."
C G
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way chordband.com
Am7 B7
There were voices down the corridor; I thought I heard them say:
C G
"Welcome to the Hotel California
B7 Em
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face.
C G
Plenty of room at the Hotel California.
Am B7
Any time of year you can find it here."
Em B7/D#
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the 'Mercedes bends'. uh!
Dsus2 A9/C#
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls 'friends'.
C G
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat!
Am7 B7
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget.
Em B7/D#
So I called up the captain, "Please bring me my wine." He said
Dsus2 A9/C#
"We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine,"
C G
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Am7 B7
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say:
C G
"Welcome to the Hotel California,
B7 Em
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face.
C G
Livin' it up at the Hotel California.
Am B7
What a nice surprise! Bring your alibis.
Em B7/D#
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice, and she said,
Dsus2 A9/C#
"We are all just prisoners here, of our own device."
C G
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast.
Am7 B7
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast.
Em B7/D#
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door.
Dsus2 A9/C#
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before.
C G
"Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive.
Am7 B7
You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave."
