VERSE

On a dark desert highway

Cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas

Rising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance

I saw a shimmering light

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway I heard the mission bell

And

I was thinking to myself

this could be heaven or this could be hell

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor

I thought I heard them say

PRE-CHORUS

Welcome to

the

Hotel California

CHORUS

Such a lovely place,

such a lovely place, such a lovely face

Plenty of room at

the

Hotel California.

Any time of year,

any time of year, you can find it here.

VERSE

Her mind is

Tiffany-twisted She got the

Mercedes Benz

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys That

She calls friends

VERSE

How they dance in the courtyard

Sweet summer sweat

Some dance to remember,

some dance to forget.

VERSE

So I called up the captain, please bring me my wine.

He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here

since 1969.

And still those voices are calling from far away

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say

CHORUS

Welcome to

the

Hotel California

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely face

CHORUS

They livin' it up at

the

Hotel California

What a nice surprise,

bring your alibis.

VERSE

Mirrors on the ceiling,

the pink champagne on

ice.

And she said, 'We are all just prisoners here

of

our own device.

VERSE

And in the master's chambers,

They gathered for the

feast.

They stab it with their steely knives

but they just can't kill the

beast

VERSE

Last thing I remember

I was running for the door

I had to find the passage back

to the place I was before

Relax said the night man,

we are programmed to receive.

OUTRO

You can check out any time you like,

but you can never leave.
