                              |                               Warm smell of colitas, rising through the air
                              E                               G

         |                               Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimering light |
         D                               F                                              C

                    2nd Verse :
                    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night         |
                    Dm                                                                            E

                               There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell |
                               Am                                             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       |
               F                                                        C

               Chorus :
               There were voices down the corridor ; I thought I heard them say :  |
               Dm                                                                  E

               Welcome to the Hotel California           |                    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face
               F                                         C                    E

                                                             |                          Plenty of room at the Hotel California,
                                                             Am                         F

                                   |                          Any time of year (any time of year), you can find it here"
                                   C                          Dm

                              |                     Ending (solo) :
                              E                                    Am              E

Passenger | Hotel California (The Eagles cover)

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
