Eagles
Hotel California
1976

Roberto Luna sent this one my way a couple of months back.  I rewrote it to
make it easier to read, so I hope it helps.  Good luck, and I hope everyone
is able to play it by the end of the year!


"I had just leased this house out on the beach at Malibu,
I guess it was around '74 or '75.  I remember sitting in the living 
room, with all the doors wide open on a spectacular July day.
I had this acoustic 12-string and I started tinkling around with
it, and those "Hotel California" chords just kind of oozed out.
Every once in a while it seems like the cosmos parts and something
great just plops in your lap."
                               -- Don Felder


------------------------------------------------------------------------
This first part is the intro. It is repeated throughout the song
(except during the chorus).

GUITAR 1 (12-string electric, capo on 7th fret)
A 7 means open string, so it is easier to read.
These are easier if you realize that the chords they outline are:
Em	B7	Dsus2	E9	C	G	Am7	B7

In all, Don Felder, Joe Walsh and Glenn Frey managed to fit eight different
guitars in for this song. GUITAR 3 plays the cool "chicka" chords you hear
during the verses.  Listen closely and you can pick this part out.  Use
fret-hand muting on the following chords to get the percussive sound.  In
other words, don't push the strings down on the fretboard, just touch the
strings so they can't vibrate much.  In addition, palm-mute them to give a
sharper sound.

GUITAR 3 (slightly distorted electric, palm-muted)

    On a dark desert high-way           cool wind in my hair

    Up ahead in the dis-tance,          I saw a shimmering light.

  I had to stop for the night.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
GUITARS 4 and 5 (distorted electrics) play chord tones in 3rds
during the verses.  GUITAR 4 plays upper voicing, GUITAR 5 plays
the lower voicing.  All the while, the 12-string continues
playing the intro chords.

   There she stood...    I heard the...       And I was thinking..

This is the chorus.  GUITAR 1 strums the following chords
(instead of picking them):
C	G	B7	Em
C	G	Am	B7
GUITAR 4 & 5 play the following bit:

Welcome to the
     Hotel California

Back to another verse.  GUITAR 4 & 5 play
this now (similar to part one with bends):

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, here's the reason for so many guitars.  On the "So I called up the Captain"
verse, GUITAR 4 & 5 repeat the part from the last verse, while GUITAR 7 & 8
(distorted electrics) introduce this "answer" harmony.  The 12-string is (still)
playing the verse chords.

     So I called up the Captain

------------------------------------------------------------------------
GUITAR 4 & 5 have a new chorus thing,
GUITAR 1 plays chorus chords.

Welcome to the 
Hotel California                                          such a ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rest of the song repeats parts I've already tabbed.  If you've 
got the tape or CD, I suggest you listen to it while looking
at the tab to find these parts. Now the solos.  These are tough,
so practice a lot and look at the rhythm I have laid out so you
can get a feel for how it's supposed to sound.

Since the top 3 strings are the only ones used for the final riff,
that's all I'll show in the tab. Both parts will be shown, GUITAR 8
plays high, GUITAR 7 plays low.

Here are the lyrics:

 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

 Welcome to the Hotel California
 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
 You can find it here

 Her mind is Tiffany twisted
 She's got the Mercedes bends
 She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
 That 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 1969
 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 place)
 Such a lovely face
 They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
 What a nice surprise  (what a nice surprise)
 Bring your alibies

 Mirrors on the ceiling
 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 to find the passage back to the place I was before
 Relax said the nightman
 We are programed to recieve
 You can check out any time you like
 But you can never leave
