[Intro]
C C/A C/G x4
[Verse 1]
C C/A C/G
Somewhere below the grand hotel
C C/A C/G
There is a tunnel that leads down to hell
C C/A C/G
Take the dumbwaiter, the laundry chute
C C/A C/G
Then sneak through the hall past the boy's shining boots
F Am
Then left at the courtyard through the old Garden
F Am
Where all the bellhops smoke with the guards
C F G
And then you run to the old lake house
C F G
Down to the old lake house
C F G C
Run to the old lake house where it begins
[Verse 2]
C C/A C/G
Under the floorboards there's a deep well
C C/A C/G
That leads to a spring that sprung up in hell
C C/A C/G
That's where old devils danced and kissed
C C/A C/G
And made their blood pacts in the ancient myths
F Am
And running through forest they screamed in chorus
F Am
While piercing fair maidens' chests with their horns
C F G
And then they lay in the grass 'til the dawn came
C F G
Sleeping away 'til the dawn came
C F G C
Lay in the grass where now stands the Grand Hotel
[Chorus]
F
The Maître D' and a fancy chef
C F
Silver's real, the liquor's top shelf
F
Play some tennis, swim in a pool
C F
Stroll the garden shady and cool
C F G
You won't care that the devils
C F G
Won't mind that the devils
C F G C
Won't know that the devils are near
[Verse 3]
C C/A C/G
Somewhere below the grand hotel
C C/A C/G
There is a tunnel that leads straight to hell
C C/A C/G
But no one comes up for the souls anymore
C C/A C/G
They come for some comfort and for the dance floor
F Am
And hiding sharp horns under fedoras
F Am
Do not disturb signs instead of a chorus
C F G
They toss and turn 'til the dawn comes
C F G
On soft sheets 'til the dawn comes
C F G C
No one sleeps at the grand hotel
[Chorus]
F
Room service, mini-bar
C F
Scented soaps, chauffeured cars
F
Stay a day, stay a week
C F
Here's the tunnel, take a peek
C F G
Just call up your friends at the front desk
C F G
Any hour at the front desk
C F G
Call up your friends at the Grand Hotel
C F G C
You'll always have friends at the Grand Hotel
