( 2 Times )
On Bma dark desert highway
coolF#7 wind in my hair
WarmA smell of colitas
risinE7g up through the air
Up Gahead in the distance
I sDaw a shimmering light
My Emhead grew heavy
and my sight grew dim
I hF#7ad to stop for the night
ThereBm she stood in the doorway
I hF#7eard the mission bell
AndA I was thinking to myself,
This could be HeavE7en
or this could be Hell
ThenG she lit up a candle
andD she showed me the way
ThereEm were voices down the corridor
I tF#7hought I heard them say
* WelcoGme to the Hotel CalifornDia
Such a lovelEmy place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovelBmy face
PlentyG of room at the Hotel CalifornDia
Any timeEm of year (Any time of year)
You can findF#7 it here
HerBm mind is Tiffany-twisted,
SheF#7 got the Mercedes Benz
SheA got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
SheE7 calls friends
HowG they dance in the courtyard,
SweetD summer sweat.
SomeEm dance to remember,
SomF#7e dance to forget
So BmI called up the Captain,
"PleaseF#7 bring me my wine" He said,
"WeA haven't had that spirit here since
nineE7teen sixty nine"
AndG still those voices are
calling from farD away,
WakeEm you up in the middle of the night
JustF#7 to hear them say...
* WelcoGme to the Hotel CalifornDia
Such a loveEmly place (Such a lovely place)
Such a loveBmly face
TheyG livin' it up at the Hotel CalifornDia
What a niceEm surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibF#7is
MirrBmors on the ceiling,
TheF#7 pink champagne on ice
And she said
WeA are all just prisoners here
of E7our own device
AndG in the master's chambers,
TheyD gathered for the feast
They stabEm it with their steely knives
But they justF#7 can't kill the beast
LastBm thing I remember, I was
RunnF#7ing for the door
I hAad to find the passage back
To the placeE7 I was before
"RelaxG, " said the night man,
"We areD programmed to receive.
YouEm can check-out any time you like,
ButF#7 you can never leave! "
