[Em]On a dark desert highway, [B7]cool wind in my hair
[D]Warm smell of colitas, [A]rising through the air
[C]Up ahead in the distance, [G]I saw a shimering light
[Am]My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, [B7]I had to stop for the night
[Em]There she stood in the doorway, [B7]I heard the mission bell [D]And I was thinking to myself: this could be [A]heaven or this could be hell [C]Then she lit up a candle [G]and she showed me the way [Am]There were voices down the corridor; [B7]I thought I heard them say:
[C]Welcome to the Hotel Califor[G]nia [B7]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a [Em]lovely face [C]Plenty of room at the Hotel Califor[G]nia Any [Am]time of year (any time of year), you can [B7]find it here
[Em]Her mind is Tiffany twisted, [B7]she got the Mercedes Benz [D]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, [A]that she calls friends [C]How they dance in the courtyard, [G]sweet summer sweat [Am]Some dance to remember, [B7]some dance to forget
[Em]So I called up the captain, "[B7]Please bring me my wine, He said [D]We haven't had that spirit here since [A]nineteen sixty-nine [C]And still those voices are calling from [G]far away [Am]Wake you up in the middle of the night, [B7]just to hear them say:
[C]Welcome to the Hotel Califor[G]nia [B7]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a [Em]lovely face They [C]livin' it up at the Hotel Califor[G]nia What a [Am]nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your [B7]alibis
[Em]Mirrors on the ceiling, [B7]the pink champagne on ice, and she said [D]We are all just prisoners here, [A]of our own device [C]And in the master's chambers, [G]they gathered for the feast [Am]They stab it with their steely knives but they [B7]just can't kill the beast
[Em]Last thing I remember, I was [B7]running for the door [D]I had to find the passage back to the [A]place I was before [C]Relax, said the night man, We are [G]programmed to receive [Am]You can check out any time you like, but [B7]you can never leave
Outro: [Em][B7][D][A][C][G][Am][B7] x2
