Eagles - Hotel California (Live 1977)

Key: B Minor

BPM: ♩ = 73

Time: 4/4

|F#7 |

|F#7 |

|Em |

|F#7 |

||Bm |

On a dark desert highway,

|F#7 |

cool wind in my hair,

|A |

warm smell of colitas,

|E7 |

rising up through the air-

||G |

Up ahead in the distance,

|D |

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 |

There she stood in the doorway,

|F#7 |

heard the mission bell,

|A |

and I was thinking to myself, “This could be

|E7 |

heaven or this could be hell”

||G |

Then she lit up a candle,

|D |

and she showed me the way,

|Em |

there were voices down the corridor,

|F#7 |

thought I heard them say-

||G |

Welcome to the Hotel Cali-

|D |

fornia, such a

|F#7 |

lovely place, such a

|Bm |

lovely face, there’s-

||G |

plenty of room at the Hotel Cali-

|D |

fornia, any

|Em |

time of year, you can

|F#7 |

find it here-

||Bm |

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,

|F#7 |

she got the Mercedes Benz, uh,

|A |

she got a lot of pretty, pretty boys,

|E7 |

she calls friends-

||G |

How they dance in the courtyard,

|D |

sweet summer sweat,

|Em |

some dance to remember,

|F#7 |

some dance to forget-

||Bm |

So I called up the Captain,

|F#7 |

“Please, bring me my wine,” he said,

|A |

“We haven’t had that spirit here since-

|E7 |

1969”

||G |

And still those voices are calling from

|D |

far away,

|Em |

wake you up in the middle of the night,

|F#7 |

just to hear them say-

||G |

Welcome to the Hotel Cali-

|D |

fornia, such a

|F#7 |

lovely place, such a

|Bm |

lovely face, they’re-

||G |

living it up at the Hotel Cali-

|D |

fornia, what a

|Em |

nice surprise, bring your

|F#7 |

alibis-

||Bm |

Mirrors on the ceiling,

|F#7 |

pink champagne on ice, and she said,

|A |

“We are all just prisoners here-

|E7 |

of our own device”

||G |

And in the master’s chambers,

|D |

gathered for the feast,

|Em |

stab it with their steely knives, but they

|F#7 |

just can’t kill the beast-

||Bm |

Last thing I remember, I

|F#7 |

was running for the door,

|A |

I had to find the passage back, to the

|E7 |

place I was before-

||G |

“Relax,” said the night man, “We

|D |

are programmed to receive,

|Em |

you can check out any time you like,

|F#7 |

but you can never leave”

||Bm |

|F#7 |
