Capo on 2 fret

Am  On a dark desert highway, E  cool wind in my hair, 

G  Warm smell of colitas, D  rising up through the air, 

F  Up ahead in the distance, I C saw a shimmering light, 

Dm My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, E I had to stop for the night...

There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell, 
And I was thinking to myself, 
`This could be Heaven or this could be Hell`,
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way, 
There were voices down the corridor, 
I thought I heard them say... 

F Welcome to the Hotel CaliCfornia, 

Such a Elovely place, such a Amlovely face, 

FPlenty of room at the Hotel CaliCfornia, 

Any Dmtime of year, you can Efind it here…

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends, 
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends, 
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat, 
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget, 

So I called up the Captain, 
`Please bring me my wine` 
He said,`We haven`t had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine`,
And still those voices are calling from far away, 
Wake you up in the middle of the night, 
Just to hear them say... 

Welcome to the Hotel California, 
Such a lovely place, 
Such a lovely face, 
They livin` it up at the Hotel California, 
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis, 

Mirrors on the ceiling, 
The pink champagne on ice, 
And she said `We are all just prisoners here, of our own device`,
And in the master`s chambers, 
They gathered for the feast, 
The stab it with their steely knives, 
But they just can`t kill the beast, 

Last thing I remember, I was, 
Running for the door, 
I had to find the passage back, 
To the place I was before, 
`Relax,`said the night man, 
We are programmed to receive, 
You can check out any time you like, 
But you can never leave.
