Verse 1:
[Am] On a dark desert highway... [E7] cool wind in my hair
[G] Warm smell of colitas... [D] rising up through the air
[F] Up ahead in the distance... [C] I saw a shimmering light
[Dm] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[E7] I had to stop for the night
Verse 2:
[Am] There she stood in the doorway... [E7] I heard the mission bell
[G] And I was thinking to myself... this could be [D] heaven or this could be hell
[F] Then she lit up a candle... [C] and she showed me the way
[Dm] There were voices down the corridor... [E7] I thought I heard them say
|Chorus:
|[F] Welcome to the Hotel Calif[C]ornia
|Such a [E7] lovely place... such a lovely place... such a [Am] lovely face
|There's [F] plenty of room at the Hotel Calif[C]ornia
|Any[Dm]time of year... anytime of year... you can [E7] find it here
Verse 3:
[Am] Her mind is Tiffany twisted... [E7] she got the Mercedes Benz
[G] She got a lot of pretty pretty boys... [D] she calls friends
[F] How they danced in the court yard... [C] sweet summer sweat
[Dm] Some dance to remember... [E7] some dance to forget
Verse 4:
[Am] So I called up the captain... [E7] please bring me my wine (he said)
[G] We haven't had that spirit here since... [D] 1969
[F] And still those voice are calling from [C] far away
[Dm] Wake you up in the middle of the night... [E7] just to hear them say
|Chorus:
|[F] Welcome to the Hotel Calif[C]ornia
|Such a [E7] lovely place... such a lovely place... such a [Am] lovely face
|They’re [F] livin’ it up at the Hotel Calif[C]ornia
|What a [Dm] nice surprise... what a nice surprise... bring your [E7] alibis...
Verse 5 - Single strum & Scratching:
[Am*] Mirrors on the ceiling... [E7*] pink champagne on ice (and she said)
[G*] We are all just prisoners here... [D*] of our own device
[F*] And in the master's chambers... they [C*] gathered for the feast
[Dm*] They stab it with their steely knives... but they [E7] just can't kill the beast
Verse 6:
[Am] Last thing I remember... I was [E7] running for the door
[G] I had find the passage back to the [D] place I was before
[F] "Relax" said the night man... we are [C] programmed to receive
[Dm] You can check out anytime you like but... [E7] you can never leave...
