Comments:
This is an awesome and fun song to play, especially around Christmas since it

tells the

story as told in Luke.

Okay, so its really played the same way as Hotel California but its a lot

easier and

to just play the chords, and it sounds just as nice. I made sure to put all

the chords in

correct places. Have fun!
Hotel Can’t Afford Ya by Apologetix
Bm F#
From a dark desert highway, we pulled into the inn
A E
Rome called for a census, I was from Bethlehem
G D
Up above from a distance a star was giving me light
Em
My wife was heavy ‘cause her child was due
F#
We had to stop for the night
Bm F#
So I stood in the doorway of Bethlehem hotel
A E
And I was thinking to myself "I hope to heaven they'll give me some help"
G D
But they told us no-can-do and they sent me away
Em F#
"There's a place around the corner though where you both can stay"
G D
Welcome, but the hotel can't afford ya
Em Bm
Such a lovely place but we're out of space
G D
Ran out of room and the hotel can't afford ya
E F#
It's the time of year with the census here
Bm F#
My wife was definitely gifted, that's what the Lord's angel said
A E
She was about to have a baby boy while still virgin
G D
Spent the night in the barnyard, cheap slumlord's rent
Em F#
Some night to remember, some night to forget
Bm F#
So because of what happened I was grieving for my wife
A
E
I said "They probably haven't cleaned in here since B.C. 65"
G D
Animal voices were calling for straw and hay
Em F#
Keeping you up through the middle of the night just as if to say…
