EAGLES-HOTEL CALIFORNIA
G D
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Em7 F#7
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
Bm7 F#7
So I called up the captain; "Please bring me my wine." He said;
A E9
"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}
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California.
F#7 Bm7
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
G D
They livin' if up at the Hotel California
Em7 F#7
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise) bring your alibis
Bm7 F#7
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice. And she said;
A E9
"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
Bm7 F#7
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
A E9
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
G D
"Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
Em7 F#7
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"
(Instrumental and fade)
