Capo 2

[Intro] Am E7 G D F C Dm E

[Verse 1] (↓↑↓↑-↑↓↑↓--↑-↑↓↑) Am E7 On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair G D Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air F C Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light Dm My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim E I had to stop for the night

Am E7 There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell G And I was thinking to myself D This could be heaven or this could be hell F C Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way Dm There were voices down the corridor, E I thought I heard them say...

[Chorus] F C Welcome to the Hotel California. E7 Am Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face F C Plenty of room at the Hotel California Dm E Any time of year, (any time of year) You can find it here

[Verse 2] Am E7 Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes bends G D She got a lot of pretty pretty boys she calls friends F C How they danced in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat Dm E Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

Am E7 So I called up the captain; Please bring me my wine (he said) G D We haven't had that spirit here since 1969 F C and still those voices are calling from far away Dm Wake you up in the middle of the night E Just to hear them say...

[Chorus] F C Welcome to the Hotel California. E7 Am Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face F C They're livin' it up at the Hotel California Dm E What a nice surprise, (what a nice surprise) Bring your alibis

[Verse] Am E7 Mirrors on the ceiling; the pink champagne on ice (and she said) G D We are all just prisoners here, of our own device F C and in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast Dm They stab it with their steely knives but they E just can't kill the beast

Am E7 Last thing I remember, I was running for the door G D I had to find the passage back to the place I was before F C "Relax" said the night man; we are programmed to receive Dm You can check out any time you like E7 But you can never leave...

[Instrumental] Am E7 G D F C Dm E x(until fade)
