Hotel California (Live at Sugarshack Sessions) - Big Mountain

Lyrics by：Don Felder/Don Henley/Glenn Frey

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

I was thinkin' 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

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted

She got the Mercedes Benz uh

She got a lot of pretty boys

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 callin'

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 livin' it up at the hotel california

What a nice surprise

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 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 night man

We are programmed to receive

You can check out any time you like

But you can never leave

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

Welcome to the hotel california

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely face

They livin' it up at the hotel california

What a nice surprise

What a nice surprise

Bring your alibis
