Me And The Eagle

Written by 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 
 
tabchorus
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
tab
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
