10 Hotel alifornia The Eagles (1977) capo on 2nd fret 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 m 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 nd 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 m There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say... Welcome to the Hotel ali fornia Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face Plenty of room at the Hotel ali fornia m ny time of year (ny time of year) You can find it here Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. m Some dance to remember, some dance to forget. So I called up the aptain, "Please bring me my wine" He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine" nd still those voices are calling from far away, m Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say...

11 Welcome to the Hotel ali fornia Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face Their livin' it up at the Hotel ali fornia m What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise) Bring your alibis Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice. nd she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device" nd in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast. m 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 to find the passage back to the place I was before "Relax," said the night man, "we are programmed to receive. m You can check out any time you like, But you can never leave!"

15 Would you like to swing on a star carry moonbeams home in a jar and be better off than you are or would you rather be a fish? fish won't do anything but swim in a brook He can't write his name or read a book To fool the people is his only thought nd though he's slippery he still gets caught But then if that sort of life is what you wish You may grow up to be a fish. nd all the monkeys aren't in the zoo Every day you see quite a few So you see it's all up to you. You can be better than you are. You can be swinging on a star Note: Standard E Soprano Ukulele Tuning. Powered by Ukeeeks' Scriptasaurus ukegeeks.com
