its a eight chord progression using seven chords: (verse) Bmin - F#maj - Amaj - Emaj - Gmaj - Dmaj - Emin - F#maj (chorus) Gmaj - Dmaj - Emin - Bmin7 - Gmaj - Dmaj - Emin - F#maj
one of these days i should really learn the theory behind music....3 yrs wasted just trying to learn cool songs .... but even so....i think it is played with a capo on seventh fret.. Em-B7-Asus4-Emadd9-Cmaj-Gmaj-C6 B7-Cmaj-Gmaj-Em the verses are just arppegiated versions of the same chords.....
yo man i have the song , but its not in Bm, or whatever, the scale keeps changing. anyway, here it is. Tarun :rockon:

here the chorus.... 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 D---------5-- A---1-2-4-5-- E-2---------- G D *1st time *second time Welcome to the Hotel California.

"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 CHORUS (with ending 2) 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 to find the passage back to the place I was before "Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive" "You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave" 1st solo: Bm F# |-------|---------------------|-7-5-3-2----9-10-| |-------|---------------------|-----------------|
