Hotel California - Eagles strum pattern: D D D DU or D D D DU | DU D D DU
intro/
verse:
Verse 1
[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:
Chorus 1
[F]Welcome to the Hotel [C]California
Such a [E7]lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a [Am]lovely face
[F]Plenty of room at the Hotel [C]California
Any [Dm]time of year (Any time of year) You can [E7]find it here
Verse 2
[Am]Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, [E7]she got the Mercedes benz
[G]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys [D]she calls friends
[F]How they dance 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]"We haven't had that spirit here since [D]nineteen sixty nine"
[F]And still those voices are calling from [C]far away,
[Dm]Wake you up in the middle of the night [E7]Just to hear them say...
Chorus 2
[F]Welcome to the Hotel [C]California
Such a [E7]lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a [Am]lovely face
They [F]livin' it up at the Hotel [C]California
What a [Dm]nice surprise (what a nice surprise) Bring your [E7]alibis
Verse 3
[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,
But they [E7]just can't kill the beast
[Am]Last thing I remember, I was, [E7]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, "We are [C]programmed to receive.
[Dm]You can check-out any time you like, [E7]But you can never leave!"
