written by Hank Cochran,Red Lane and Mack Vickery

performed by Waylon Jennings.


Verse 1:
         E (022100@1)Lord knows i am peaceful when i'm left alone
                                   D (xx0232@1)         A (x02220@1)           E (022100@1)I've always been an eagle,been awhile since i have flown

	My claws are sharp as ever,so is my eagle eye
          D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)                   E (022100@1)Somethings gonna go tonight,when the eagle flies


Verse 2:
         E (022100@1)Lately i've heard rumors that the eagle may be lame
                                      D (xx0232@1)       A (x02220@1)      E (022100@1)Just because i've been idle don't mean that i'm tame

	You've jeopardized my freedom,my natural place to roost
               D (xx0232@1)          A (x02220@1)                         E (022100@1)I can fly if i have to,if they turn the eagle loose


Chorus:
            A (x02220@1)                                            E (022100@1)So lay all your doubts aside,when you go to bed tonight
             A (x02220@1)                                            B (x2444x@1)My feathers have been ruffled and i'm ready for afight (x02210@1)              E (022100@1)Just because i took awhile to fly don't mean that i don't care
                  D (xx0232@1)               A (x02220@1)                       E (022100@1)When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle's in the air


Chorus.

	          D (xx0232@1)               A (x02220@1)                       E (022100@1)When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle's in the air
