Capo 2

[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
[E]I had to stop for the night
[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, [E]I thought I heard them say:

Chorus 
{soc}                      
[F] Welcome to the Hotel Cali[C]fornia
Such a [E7] lovely place... such a [Am]lovely face
[F] Plenty of room at the Hotel Cali[C]fornia
Any [Dm]time of year... you can [E]find it here
{eoc}

[Am]Her mind is Tiffany twisted, [E7]she got the Mercedes bends
[G]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys [D] she calls friends
[F]How they danced in the courtyard, [C]sweet summer sweat
[Dm]Some dance to remember, [E]some dance to forget
[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]nineteen sixty-nine"
[F]And still those voices are calling from [C]far away
[Dm]Wake you up in the middle of the night, [E]just to hear them say

Chorus 
{soc}                      
[F] Welcome to the Hotel Cali[C]fornia
Such a [E7] lovely place... such a [Am]lovely face
[F] Plenty of room at the Hotel Cali[C]fornia
What a [Dm]nice surprise (what a nice surprise) Bring your [E]alibis
{eoc}

[Am]Mirrors on the ceiling, [E7]the 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, [C]they gathered for the feast
[Dm]They stab it with their steely knives, but they [E]just can't kill the beast
[Am]Last thing I remember, [E7]I was running for the door
[G]I had to find the passage back to the [D]place I was before
[F]"Relax" said the nightman, "We are [C]programmed to receive"
[Dm]"You can check out anytime you like, [E]but you can never leave"
