Hotel California Chords and lyrics text file
[VERSE]
Bm F#7 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#7 There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell A And I was thinking to myself E This could be heaven or this could be hell G D Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way Em There were voices down the corridor, F# I thought I heard them say... [CHORUS] G D Welcome to the Hotel California. F#7 Bm Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face G D There's Plenty of room at the Hotel California Em F# Anytime of year,(anytime of year) You can find it here... [VERSE] Bm F#7 Her mind is Tiffany twisted, She got the Mercedes bends A E She got a lot of pretty pretty boys that she calls friends G D How they danced in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat Em F# Some dance to remember, some dance to forget Bm F#7 So I called up the captain; Please bring me my wine (he said) A E We haven't had that spirit here since 1969 G D and still those voices are calling from far away Em Wake you up in the middle of the night F# Just to hear them say [CHORUS] G D Welcome to the Hotel California. F#7 Bm Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face G D They livin' it up at the Hotel California Em F# What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis [VERSE] Bm F#7 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 They stab it with their steely knives but they F# just can't kill the beast Bm F#7 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 night man; we are programmed to receive Em You can check out anytime you like F# But you can never leave...
