Artist/Band: Earle Steve Tabs
Song: Me And The Eagle Tab
Me and the Eagle by Steve Earle
(Steve Earle)
INTRO: D A G D
The eagle looked (D) down on the river below (D)
(D)And he wrapped his wings (A) round him, and he (G) fell like a stone
And the big salmon (D) fought but the (A) talons held (Bm)true (E)
(D)And he shuddered as the (A) world turned from (G) silver to blue (D)
(D)I stood there in awe though I�d seen it before
I was born in these (A) mountains, And I�ll (G) die here for sure
I�ve travelled (D) around I�ve (A) seen city (Bm) lights (E)
But (D) nothin� that (A) shined like the (G) big sky at (D) night
Chorus:
Some (A) mornings will find me up (D) above the timberline
(G) Lonesome don�t seem like much (D) once you�re this high
(D)When it�s all said and done I (A) usually (Bm) find (E)
(D) Me and the (A) eagle are (G) of the same (D) mind
Now when I was young I took me a wife
But she never took to the high country life
So now I �m alone I don�t really mind
But her name echoes down from the canyon sometimes
Rpt. Chorus
In my dreams there�s a horse, He stands eighteen hands high
He�s as white as the snow and there�s fire in his eyes
And he�ll bare only me though others have tried
And together we�ll travel up across the divide
Rpt. Chorus
