Intro: Bm - F# - A - E - G - D - Em - F# (2X)
| | Bm | F# |
| | On a dark desert highway, | cool wind in my hair |
| | A | E |
| | Warm smell of colitas, | rising up through the air |
| | G | D |
| | Up ahead in the distance, | I saw a shimmering light |
| | Em |
| | My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim |
| | F# |
| | I had to stop for the night |
| | Bm | F# |
| | There she stood in the doorway, | I heard the mission bell |
| | A | E |
| | And I was thinking to myself this could be | heaven or this could be hell |
| | G | D |
| | Then she lit up a candle, | and she showed me the way |
| | Em | F# |
| | There were voices down the corridor, | I thought I heard them say: |
| Welcome to the Hotel California |
| Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face |
| Plenty of room at the Hotel California |
| | Em | F# |
| Any | time of year... any time of year... you can | find it here |

| | Her mind is Tiffany twisted, | she got the Mercedes bends, uh! |
| | A | E |
| | She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys | that she calls friends |
| | G | D |
| | How they dance in the courtyard, | sweet summer sweat |
| | Em | F# |
| | Some dance to remember, | some dance to forget |
| | Bm | F# |
| | So I called up the captain, | "Please bring me my wine," he said |
| | A | E |
| | "We haven't had that spirit here since | nineteen sixty-nine" |
| | G | D |
| | And still those voices are calling from | far away |
| | Em | F# |
| | Wake you up in the middle of the night, | just to hear them say |
| Welcome to the Hotel California |
| Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face |
| Livin it up at the Hotel California |

| | Mirrors on the ceiling, | the pink champagne on ice, and she said, |
| | A | E |
| | "We are all just prisoners here, | of our own device" |
| | G | D |
| | And in the master's chambers, | they gathered for the feast |
| | Em | F# |
| | They stab it with their steely knives, but they | just can't kill the beast |
| | Bm | F# |
| | Last thing I remember, | I was running for the door |
| | A | E |
| | I had to find the passage back to the | place I was before |
| | G | D |
| | "Relax" said the nightman, "We are | programmed to receive" |
| | Em | F# |
| | "You can check out anytime you like, | but you can never leave" |
