Here's the Hotel California Guitar Chords along with the words (lyrics).
[Bm]On a dark desert highway, [F#]cool wind in my hair
[A]Warm smell of colitas, [E]rising through the air
[D]I saw a shimering light
[Em]My
head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, [F#]I
had to stop for the night
[Bm]There she stood in the doorway, [F#]I heard the mission bell
[A]And I was thinking to myself: this could be [E]heaven or this could be hell
[G]Then she lit up a candle [D]and she showed me the way
[Em]There
were voices down the corridor; [F#]I
thought I heard them say
[G]Welcome to the Hotel Califor[D]nia
[F#]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a [Bm]lovely face
[G]Plenty of room at the Hotel Califor[D]nia
Any [Em]time
of year (any time of year), you can [F#]find
it here
[Bm]Her mind is Tiffany twisted, [F#]she got the Mercedes Benz
[A]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, [E]that she calls friends
[G]How they dance in the courtyard, [D]sweet summer sweat
[Em]Some dance to remember, [F#]some dance to forget
[Bm]So I called up the captain, [F#]Please bring me my wine, He said
[A]We haven't had that spirit here since [E]nineteen sixty-nine
[G]And still those voices are calling from [D]far away
[Em]Wake you up in the middle of the night, [F#]just to hear them say
[G]Welcome to the Hotel Califor[D]nia
[F#]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a [Bm]lovely face
They [G]livin' it up at the Hotel Califor[D]nia
What a [Em]nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your [F#]alibis
[Bm]Mirrors on the ceiling, [F#]the pink champagne on ice, and she said
[A]We are all just prisoners here, [E]of our own device
[G]And in the master's chambers, [D]they gathered for the feast
[Em]They stab it with their steely knives but they [F#]just can't kill the beast
[Bm]Last thing I remember, I was [F#]running for the door
[A]I had to find the passage back to the [E]place I was before
[G]Relax, said the night man, We are [D]programmed to receive
[Em]You can check out any time you like, but [F#]you can never leave
