Bm F#
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

Em F#
(1)Any
time of year (any time of year) you can find it here
(2)What
a nice surprise (what a nice surprise) bring your alibis
Her mind
is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
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."
"We
haven't 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
CHORUS
(with ending 2)
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 nightman, "We are programmed to receive"
"You
can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"
