Chords EADGBE -------- Bm 224432 F# 244322 A x02220 E 022100 G 320002 D xx0323 Em 022000 Bm F# On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair A E Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air G D Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light Em My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim F# I had to stop for the night Bm F# There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell A E And I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or this could be hell G D Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way Em F# There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say Chorus : G D Welcome to the Hotel California. Em Bm7 Such a lovely place, such a lovely face G D Plenty of room at the Hotel California Em F# Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here Keep on playing the song the way you have over and over and you have got it. Enjoy.
yeah these are just the chords that u can play and maybe sing with. The whole song is brilliant though.
Bass :- Intro :- e --0---2---4---2---0--------0---2-------------0---2s4--4s2--4--5--4 a ---------------------4---4--------2----2---4---0-------------------- d --------------------------------------------------------------------- g --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fill in before the chorus :- e a --2-4-------------------------- d ------0-4---------------------- g -----------0------------------- Fill in during the chorus :- e a --2---4----------------------- d ----------0--2--4------------- g --------------------0--------- This are my first ever tabs. Sorry for any mistakes but this is how I play it. Hope it helps. And remember, rythym is very necessary here .
I guess the intro played sounds better if u hold the chords Bm F# A E G D E F# along with play following strings for each chord in order: g, b, g, e, g, b, e, b, n finally eb at the same time there r several ways 2 play it...... a capo on the 7th string being most accurate! the live version is beautiful too....played with different intro
