Hotel Yorba The White Stripes
Don't be bothered at all about getting the strumming patterns precise,
just use my verse as a rough guide. In the first bar, as long as you
get the hammer-ons then it should sound fine. I've put a measure in
that Jack once played live, you can develop on that if you want.

Verse 1
I was [G]watching with one e[C]ye on the other side
I had fif[D]teen people telling me to move
I got mo[G]vin' on my mind
I found s[G]helter in some thou[C]ghts turning wheels around
I said thirty-[D]nine times that 'I love you'
To the beau[G]ty I had found Well It's
Chorus
[G]One two three four take the elevator at the
H[C]otel Yorba I'll be glad to see you later
[D]All they got inside is vaca[G]nc[F5]y[G]

Verse 2
I've been [G]thinking of a little p[C]lace down by the lake
They've got a di[D]rty old road leading up to the house
I wonder h[G]ow long it will take

Stom[D]ping our feet on the wooden boards
Ne[G]ver gonna worry about locking the door Well it's

Verse 3
Let's get [G]married in a big cath[C]edral by a priest
'Cos if I[D]'m the man that you love the most
You could [G]say 'I do' at least Well it's
Chorus
[G]One two three four take the elevator at the
H[C]otel Yorba I'll be glad to see you later
[D]All they got inside is [G]vacancy And it's
[G]Four five six seven grab you umbrella
[C]Grab hold of me 'cos I'm your favourite fella
