Album: The Resistance
Intro: Am G F E x2
Am
Is your secret safe tonight?

And are we out of sight?

Or will our world come tumbling down?
Am
Will they find our hiding place?
G
Is this our last embrace?
F
Or will the walls start caving in?
Bridge:
F Am
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) But it should've been right
G
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Let our hearts ignite
F
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Are we digging a hole?
Chorus:
C
Love is our resistance
G
They keep us apart and they won't stop breaking us down
Am Am/G F E
And hold me, our lips must always be sealed
Am G F E
Am
If we live our life in fear
G
I'll wait a thousand years
F E
Just to see you smile again
Am
Quell your prayers for love and peace
G
You'll wake the thought police
F
We can hide the truth inside

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#
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 :
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California.
Em Bm7
Such a lovely place, 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
Keep on playing the song the way you have over and over and you have got it. Enjoy

INTRO:
VERSE:
G Cadd9
Saying I love you is
Am7 C D G
not the words I want to hear from you
G Cadd9
It's not that I want you
Am7 C D Em
not to say but if you only knew
Bm7 Am7
Ho-ow ea-sy
D G D/F# Em
It would be to show me how you feel
Bm7 Am7 D7 G7
More than words is all you have to do
G7 C
To make it real
C Cm G
Then you wouldn't have to say
Em7
That you love me 'cos
Am7 D7 G
I'd already know
BRIDGE:
G D/F# Em Bm C
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
C G/B Am7 D7 G
More than words to show you feel that your love for me is real
C G/B Am7
Then you couldn't make things new
D7 G
Just by saying I love you
