[Bm] a dark desert highway, [F#] cool wind in my hair, [A] [E] warm smell of polyethylene dust [Bm] rising
up through the air.
[G] Up ahead [D] in the distance, I saw a shimmering light.
[Em] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim.

I had to stop for the night.
[Bm] As she stood in the doorway, [F#] I heard the mission bell.

[F#] I thought I heard them say, [D] Welcome [G] to the Hotel Cabin.

[F#] Please bring me my wine.
[A] He said, we haven't had that spirit [E] here since 1969.
[G] And still those voices are [D] calling from far [Bm] away.
Wake you up in the middle of the [F#] night just to hear them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel [D] California.
[F#] Such a lovely place, such a lovely place, [Bm] such a lovely [D] place.
[G] They're living it up at the Hotel [D] California.

[F#] When your alibis
[Bm] is on the ceiling.
[F#] The pink champagne on ice.
And she [A] said, we are all just business [E] here. A [Bm] device.
[G] And in the master's chambers, [D] they're gathered for the feast.
[E] They stab it [Em] with their stealing [F#] eyes, but they just can't kill the beast.
[Bm] Last thing I remember, [F#] I was running for the door.
[A] I had to find the passage [E] back to the place I was before.
