Verse:
BmOn a dark desert highway, F#7cool wind in my hair
AWarm smell of colitas E7rising up through the air
GUp ahead in the distance, DI saw a shimmering light
EmMy head grew heavy and my sight grew dim; F#7I had to stop for the night.
BmThere she stood in the doorway; F#7I heard the mission bell
AAnd I was thinking to myself, "This coulE7d be Heaven or this could be Hell"
GThen she lit up a candle Dand she showed me the way
EmThere were voices down the corridor F#7I thought I heard them say...
Chorus:
GWelcome to the Hotel CaliDfornia...
Such a F#7lovely place,(such a lovely place)such a Bmlovely facF#7e..(on C#). Bm (on D)
GPlenty of room at the Hotel CaliDfornia...
Any Emtime of year,(any time of year)you can F#7find it here...
Verse:
BmHer mind is Tiffany-twisted, F#7she got the Mercedes Bends
AShe got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, E7that she calls friends
GHow they dance in the courtyard, Dsweet summer sweat
EmSome dance to remember, F#7some dance to forget
BmSo I called up the Captain, &F#7quot;Please bring me my wine"
He said, &Aquot;We haven't had that spirit here sE7ince nineteen sixty nine"
GAnd still those voices are calling from Dfar away,
EmWake you up in the middle of the night F#7just to hear them say...
Chorus:
GWelcome to the Hotel CaliDfornia...
Such a F#7lovely place,(such a lovely place)such a Bmlovely facF#7e..

GThey livin' it up at the Hotel CaliDfornia... What a Emnice surprise,(what a nice surprise)bring your F#7alibis...BmMirrors on the ceiling, F#7the pink champagne on ice
And she said &Aquot;We are all just prisoners hE7ere, of our own device"
GAnd in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
EmThey stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
BmLast thing I remember, I was F#7running for the door
AI had to find the passage back to E7place I was before
G"Relax" said the night manD, "We are programmed to receive.
EmYou can check out any time you like, F#7but you can never leave".
