******************** THE EAGLE *******************
written by Hank Cochran,Red Lane and Mack Vickery
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
E
Lord knows i am peaceful when i`m left alone
D A E
I`ve always been an eagle,been awhile since i have flown
My claws are sharp as ever,so is my eagle eye
D A E
Somethings gonna go tonight,when the eagle flies
Verse 2:
E
Lately i`ve heard rumors that the eagle may be lame
D A E
Just because i`ve been idle don`t mean that i`m tame
You`ve jeopardized my freedom,my natural place to roost
D A E
I can fly if i have to,if they turn the eagle loose
Chorus:
A E
So lay all your doubts aside,when you go to bed tonight
A B
My feathers have been ruffled and i`m ready for a fight
E
Just because i took awhile to fly don`t mean that i don`t care
D A E
When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle`s in the air
Chorus.
D A E
When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle`s in the air
