[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] On a dark desert highway, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] cool wind in my hair |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] Warm smell of colitas |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] rising up through to air |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] Up ahead in the distance, |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] I saw a shimmering light |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] I had to stop for the night |
[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] there she stood in the doorway; |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] I heard the mission bell |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] And I was thinking to myself this could be heaven |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] or this could be hell |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] Then she lit up a candle, |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] and she showed me the way |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] There were voices down the corridor, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] I thought I heard them say |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] Welcome to the Hotel Cali- |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] fornia |
| Such a |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] lovely place, such a |
[A7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Perfect Unison] lovely face |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] Plenty of room at the |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] hotel California |
| Any |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] time of year, you can |
[A7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Perfect Unison] find it here |
[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] Her mind is Tiffany twisted, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] she got a Mercedes Benz |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] that she calls friends |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] How they dance in the courtyard, |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] sweet summer sweat |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] Some dance to remember, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] some dance to forget |
[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] So I called up the captain, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] "Please bring me my wine" |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] "We haven't had that spirit here since |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] nineteen sixty-nine" |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] And still those voices are |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] calling from far away |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] Wake you up in the middle of the night, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] just to hear them say |
Repeat Chorus
[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] Mirrors on the ceiling, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] the pink champagne on ice |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] And she said "We are still just prisoners here, |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] of our own device |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] And in the master's chambers, |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] they gathered for the feast |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] They stab it with their steely knives, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] but they just can't kill the beast |
[DmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] Last thing I remember, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] I was runing for the door |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Third] I had to find the passage back |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] to the place I was before |
[B♭Major Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Second] "Relax" said the nightman, |
[FMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Minor Sixth] "We are programmed to receive" |
[GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Minor Seventh] "You can check out anytime you like, |
[AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] but you can never leave" |
Repeat Chorus
