Flying [F] again, I’m flying [C] again
[Am] Eagles inhabit the [Em] heavenly [Am] heights
They know neither [Em] limits or [C] bounds
They’re the [F] guardian angels of [Am] darkness and [F] light
They [Am] see all and [Em] hear every [Am] sound
My spirit will never be [Em] broken or [Am] caught
For the souls a [Em] free flying [C] thing

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
Chorus:
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California.
Em Bm7
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
G D
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Em F#
Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here
Bm F#
Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
A E
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
G D
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Em F#
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
Bm F#
So I called up the captain; "Please bring me my wine."
A E
"We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine"
G D
And still those voices are calling from far away
Em F#
Wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say
Chorus:
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California.
Em Bm7
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
G D
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
Em F#
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise) bring your alibis
Bm F#
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice
A E
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
G D
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
Em F#
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
Bm F#
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
A E
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
G D
"Relax" said the nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
Em F#
"You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"

The Best of My Love
Tom: C
Intro: C C Dm Dm
C C Dm Dm
Every night, I'm lying in bed, holding you close in my dreams
C C Dm Dm
Thinking about all the things that we said, and coming apart at the seams
Em Dm Em F/G
We try to talk it over, but the words come out too rough
C Dm C G7
I know you were trying to give me the best of your love
C C Dm Dm
Beautiful faces, and loud empty places, look at the way that we live
C C Dm Dm
Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine, left us so little to give
Em Dm Em F/G
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud that we could never rise above
C Dm C G7
But here in my heart, I give you the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
Fm7 Fm7 C C
I'm going back in time and it's a sweet dream
Fm7 Fm7 Dm G7
It was a quiet night and I would be all right if I could go on sleeping
C C Dm Dm
But every morning I wake up and worry, what's gonna happen today?
C C Dm Dm
You see it your way, and I see it mine, but we both see it slipping away
Em Dm Em Dm G7
You know we always had each other baby, I guess that wasn't enough; o-o-ohh
C Dm C G
But here in my heart, I give you the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love

Lyin` Eyes
Tom: G
G Bm C
1. City girls just seem to find out early,
Am D
how to open doors with just a smile.
G Bm C
A rich old man and she won't have to worry,
Am C G
she'll dress up all in lace and go in style.
G Bm C
2. Late at night a big old house gets lonely;
Am D
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
G Bm C
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Am C G
given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
G Bm C
3. So she tells him she must go out for the evening,
Am D
to comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
G Bm C
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin',
Am C G
she's headed for that cheatin' side of town.
G - C G
You can't hide your lyin' eyes,
Em - Bm Am - D
and your smile is a thin disguise.
G - G7 C - A
I thought by now you'd realize,
Am D G
there ain't no way to hide your lying eyes.
G Bm C
4.On the other side of town a boy is waiting,
Am D
with stormy eyes and dreams no-one could steal.
G Bm C
She drives on through the night anticipating,
Am C G - C-D
'cos it makes him feel the way she used to feel.
G bm C
5. She rushes to his arms, they fall together,
Am D
she whispers that its only for a while.
G Bm C
She says that soon she'll be coming back forever,
Am C G
she pulls away and leaves him with a smile. + REFRAIN
G Bm C
6. She gets up and pours herself a strong one,
Am D
and stares out at the stars up in the sky.
G Bm C
Another night, it's gonna be a long one,
Am C G
she draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.
G Bm C
7. And she wonders how it ever got this crazy,
Am D
she thinks about a boy she knew in school
G Bm C
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy,
Am C G
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool.
G Bm C
8. My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things,
Am D
you set it up so well, so carefully.
G Bm C
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things,
Am C G
you're still the same old girl you used to be. + REFRAIN
Am D G - D
+ there aint no way to hide your lyin' eyes,
Am D G
honey, you cant hide your lyin' eyes.
