This is a straight off adaptation of the original on guitar, which means we have some
advanced chords, i.e. it might be a good idea to watch the tutorial also. So if you're
looking for an easy version, try some of the other available transcriptions instead.
[Intro]
Bm F#7 Aadd2 E9 G D Em7 F#7 x2
[Verse 1]
Bm F#7
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Aadd2 E9
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
G D
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
Em7 F#7
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night
[Verse 2]
Bm F#7
There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell
Aadd2 E9
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
Em7 F#7
There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say
[Chorus 1]
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California
F#7 Bm
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
G D
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Em F#7
Any time of year (any time of year), you can find it here
[Verse 3]
Bm F#7
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz oh
Aadd2 E9
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, she calls friends
G D
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Em7 F#7
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
[Verse 4]
Bm F#7
So I called up the captain, please bring me my wine
Aadd2 E9
He said, we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
G D
And still those voices are calling from far away
Em7 F#7
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say
[Chorus 2]
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California
F#7 Bm
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
G D
They living it up at the Hotel California
Em F#7
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis
[Verse 5]
Bm F#7
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice
Aadd2 E9
And she said, we are all just prisoners here, of our own device
G D
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
Em7 F#7
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
[Verse 6]
Bm F#7
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
Aadd2 E9
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
G D
Relax said the night man, we are programmed to receive
Em7 F#7
You can check-out any time you like, but you can never leave
