    Verse 1
    On 
    a 
    dark 
    desert 
    highway, 
    cool 
    wind 
    in my 
    hair 

    A 
    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 
    thinking 
    to 
    myself, 

    this 
    could 
    be 
    heaven 
    and 
    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 

    Californi
    a 

    Such 
    a 
    lovely 
    place, 
    such 
    a 
    lovely 
    place, 

    such 
    a 
    lovely 
    face 

    Pretty 
    room 
    at 
    the 

    Hotel 

    Californi
    a 

    Any 
    time 
    of 
    year, 
    any 
    time 
    of 
    year, 

    you 
    can 
    find 
    it 
    here 

    Her 
    mind 
    is 
    tippin' 
    it 
    twisted, 

    she 
    got 
    the 

    Mercedes 

    Benz 

    She 
    got 
    a 
    lot 
    of 
    pretty, 
    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 
    every 
    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 

    Wel
    come 
    to 
    the 

    Hotel 

    Californi
    a 

    Such 
    a 
    lovely 
    place, 
    such 
    a 
    lovely 
    place, 

    such 
    a 
    lovely 
    place. 

    They're 
    living 
    it 
    up 
    at 
    the 

    Hotel 

    Californi
    a. 

    What 
    a 
    nice 
    surprise, 
    what 
    a 
    nice 
    surprise, 

    when 
    you're 
    alibis. 

    Mirrors 
    on 
    the 
    ceiling, 

    the 
    pink 
    champagne 
    on 
    ice. 

    And 
    she 
    said, 
    we 
    are 
    all 
    just 
    prisoners 
    here, 

    of 
    our 
    own 
    device 

    An
    d 
    in 
    the 
    master's 
    chambers, 

    they're 
    gathered 
    for 
    the 
    feast 

    They 
    stab 
    it 
    with 
    their 
    stealing 
    eyes, 

    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 
    at 
    the 
    night 
    man, 

    we 
    are 
    programmed 
    to 
    receive 

    You 
    can 
    check 
    out 
    anytime 
    you 
    like, 

    but 
    you 
    can 
    never 
    leave

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
