Hotel California Tab

by Gipsy Kings


Gipsy Kings
Hotel California (The Big Lebowsky OST)


Overheard while 'Jesus Quintana' pulls up his purple socks, licks his
bowling ball, and throws a strike.

I just tabbed the chords. Try and tab the riffs and solo for all of us.
After all, I play drums.

                  F#Gb                
        e:-----2------2-----0----0----3----2--|

        D:-----4------4-----2----2----0----0--|
        A:-----2------4-----0----2----2----X--|
        E:-----X------2-----X----0----3----X--|

Play the basic pattern for 4 more times (while someone else plays the solo),
and end the song in Bm.
