Eagles Hotel California Lyrics
By The Eagles

Below you'll find the Eagles Hotel California Lyrics along with my partial version demo.

Hotel California was a first in a few ways. It was the first album with new member Joe Walsh replacing Bernie Leadon. It was also the last album for bass player Randy Meisner. It was The Eagles 5th album and produced two #1 hits with Hotel California and New Kid In Town.

--- Start Of Eagles Hotel California 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 face
Plenty of room at the hotel california ... any 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
Some dance to remember ... some dance to forget

So I called up the captain ... please bring me my wine
He said, we havent 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 livin 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 masters chambers ... They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives But they just cant 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
You can checkout any time you like ... but you can never leave
