Eagles - Hotel California

Eagles - Hotel California

On a dark
    desert highway

     cool wind in
     my hair

    the warm smell of
        colitas

       rising up
    through the air

       Up ahead
    in a 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

    Welcome to the
   Hotel California

  such a lovely place
  such a lovely face

 plenty of room at the
   Hotel California

    any time of year
 you can find it here

      Her mind is
    Tiffany twisted

      She's got the
     Mercedes Benz

   She's got a lot of
  pretty pretty boys

 she calls friends

    How they dance
   in the courtyard

  sweet summer sweat

some dance to remember
 some dance to forget

    So I called up
      the captain

    Please bring me
    my wine He said

  We haven't had that
   spirit here since

  nineteen sixty nine

    And still those
      voices are

     calling from
       far away

  wake you up in the
  middle of the night

     just to hear
       them say

    Welcome to the
   Hotel California

  such a lovely place
  such a lovely face

 they're living it up at
 the Hotel California

 What a nice surprise
   bring your alibis

      Mirrors on
      the ceiling

  the pink champagne
  on ice and she said

    We are all just
    prisoners here

   of our own device

      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

      Last thing
      I remember

     I was running
     for the door

    I had find the
  passage back to the

  place I was before

      Relax said
     the night man
