Hotel California - Eagles Chords

Capo 2
 
[Intro]
---------------------------------------
Am   E7   G   D   F   C   Dm   E7   
x2
 
[Verse]
---------------------------------------
Am                         
  On a dark desert highway,
  E7
  cool wind in my hair
G                      
  Warm smell of colitas
  D
   rising up through the air
F                          
  Up ahead in the distance,
  C 
   I saw a shimmering light
Dm
   My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
E7
  I had to stop for the night
Am                               
  There she stood in the doorway;
  E7 
   I heard the mission bell
G
  And I was thinking to myself
              D
This could be heaven or this could be hell
F                          
  Then she lit up a candle,
  C 
   and she showed me the way
Dm
   There were voices down the corridor,
E7
  I thought I heard them say...
 
[Chorus]
-----------------------------------------------
F                          C
  Welcome to the Hotel California.
       E7                                  
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place),
        Am 
 such a lovely face
F                               C
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Dm                              
Any time of year, (any time of year)
         E7
You can find it here
 
[Verse]
-----------------------------------------------
Am                           
 Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,
 E7 
  She got the Mercedes bends
G                                   
 She got a lot of pretty pretty boys
  D
   she calls friends
F                                  
  How they danced in the courtyard,
  C 
   sweet summer sweat
Dm                       
  Some dance to remember,
  E7
   some dance to forget
Am                           
  So I called up the captain;
  E7
  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
E7
  Just to hear them say...
 
[Chorus]
-----------------------------------------------
F                         C
 Welcome to the Hotel California.
       E7                                  
Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place),
        Am
such a lovely face
        F                             C
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
       Dm                                   
What a nice surprise, (what a nice surprise)
            E7
Bring your alibis
 
[Verse]
-----------------------------------------------
Am                        
   Mirrors on the ceiling;
   E7
   the pink champagne on ice (and she said)
G                                
  We are all just prisoners here,
  D
  of our own device
F                              
  and in the master's chambers,
  C
  they gathered for the feast
Dm
 They stab it with their steely knives
          E7
 but they just can't kill the beast
 
Am                       
   Last thing I remember,
         E7
   I was running for the door
G                                      
  I had to find the passage back to the
   D
  place I was before
F                            
  "Relax" said the night man;
         C
  we are programmed to receive
Dm
  You can check out any time you like
E7
 But you can never leave...
