[ Don Felder /Don Henley / Glenn Frey ]
AmE
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
GD
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
DmC
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
D#m4E
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night
AmE
There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell
GD
And I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or this could be hell
DmC
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
D#m4E
There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say:
FC
Welcome to the Hotel California
DmAm
Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
FC
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
DmE
Any time of year... any time of year... you can find it here
AmE
Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
GD
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
DmC
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
D#m4E
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
AmE
So I called up the captain, "Please bring me my wine," he said
GD
"We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
DmC
And still those voices are calling from far away
D#m4E
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say
FC
Welcome to the Hotel California
DmAm
Such a lovely place... such a lovely place... such a lovely face
FC
Livin it up at the Hotel California
DmE
What a nice surprise... what a nice surprise... bring your alibis
AmE
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice, and she said,
GD
"We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
DmC
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
D#m4E
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
AmE
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
GD
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
DmC
"Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
D#m4E
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"
REPETE REFRÃO
Am E G D Dm C (Vocalizes)
D#m4E
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"
Am 3 x pra baixo.
