Hotel California

Eagles
 BmF#
 On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
 AE
 Warm smell of colitas, rising through the air
 GD
 Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimering light
 EmF#
 My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night

 BmF#
 There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell
 AE
 And I was thinking to myself: this could be heaven or this could be hell
 GD
 Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
 EmF#
 There were voices down the corridor; I thought I heard them say:

 GD
"Welcome to the Hotel California
 F#Bm
 Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
 GD
 Plenty of room at the Hotel California
 EmF#
Any time of year (any time of year), you can find it here"

 BmF#
 Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz
 AE
 She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
 GD
 How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
 EmF#
 Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

 BmF#
 So I called up the captain, "Please bring me my wine", He said
 AE
 "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
 GD
 And still those voices are calling from far away
 EmF#
 Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say:

 GD
"Welcome to the Hotel California
 F#Bm
 Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
 GD
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
 EmF#
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis"

 BmF#
 Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice, and she said
 AE
"We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
 GD
 And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
 EmF#
 They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast

 BmF#
 Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
 AE
 I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
 GD
"Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive
 EmF#
 You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave"
