[Verse 1]
------------------------------------------------------------
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#7
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
[Chorus 1]
------------------------------------------------------------
G                       D
Welcome to the hotel california
F#7                   Bm / F#        D / F# 
Such a lovely place such a lovely face such a lovely face
G                             D
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Em                                          F#
Any time of year  any time of year you can find it here
[Verse 2]
------------------------------------------------------------
Bm                          F#
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted she got the mercedes bends
A                                   E
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys 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
A                                             E
He said we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
G                                       D
And still those voices are calling from far away
Em                                      F#7
Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say
[Chorus 2]
------------------------------------------------------------
G                      D
Welcome to the hotel california
F#7                                      Bm / F#  D / F#
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 3]
------------------------------------------------------------
Bm                      F#
Mirrors on the ceiling the pink champagne on ice
A                                            E
And she said 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 night man we are programmed to receive
Em                                      F#7
