Gipsy Kings
Hotel California (The Big Lebowsky OST)

by: Tom?s (tomaset@hotmail.com)

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.



              Bm    F#Gb    A    E    G    D
        e:-----2------2-----0----0----3----2--
        B:-----3------2-----2----0----0----3--
        G:-----4------3-----2----1----0----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.
