- Eagles
- Hotel California
- 1976
-
- I had a request for this, and it is an incredibly easy song to play,
- so I'm gonna put it up. There are basically two guitar parts,
- one that plays power chords and Felder's slide guitar. Notice that
- Felder's guitar has the 1st string tuned dowm to D. Have fun, and
- good luck Chris.
-
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
- GUITAR 1 is the lead guitar here, it plays the slide stuff.
- Tune 1st string to D, so you are tuned (low to high) EADGBd
-
- GUITAR 2 plays power chords: G5 355xxx
- C5 x355xx
- A5 x022xx
- Bb5 x133xx

- This is the first part of the second verse. It just adds the slide-downs.
- After this part, they add the chicka to GUITAR 2, just scratch your strings
- before playing the power chords. GUITAR 1 repeats this figure with the
- slide-downs in the second part.

- These are the lyrics:
-
- What kind of love have you got?
- You should be home, but you're not
- A room full of noise and dangerous boys
- still makes you thirsty and hot
-
- I heard about you and that man
- There's just one thing I don't understand
- You say he's a liar and he put out your fire
- How come you still got his gun in your hand?
-
- Victim of love , I see a broken heart
- You got your stories to tell
- Victim of love, it's such an easy part
- and you know how to play it so well
-
- Some people never come clean
- I think you know what I mean
- You're walkin' the wire, pain and desire
- Looking for love in between
-
- Tell me your secrets, I'll tell you mine
- This ain't no time to be cool
- And tell all your girlfriends,
- you "been around the world" friends
- that talk is for losers and fools
-
- Victim of love, I see a broken heart
- I could be wrong, but I'm not
- Victim of love, we're not so far apart
- Show me, what kind of love have you got?
-
- Victim of love, you're just a victim of love
- I could be wrong , but I'm not
- Victim of love, now you're a victim of love
- What kind of love have you got?
- What kind of love have you got?
- What kind of love have you got?
-
