[Intro] E(8) E(6) E(4) E(2) E (x2) (see notes at the end of this tab) [Song] D I am the eagle, I live in high country, C in rocky cathedrals that reach to the sky. D I am the hawk and there?s blood on my feathers, C but time is still turning, they soon will be dry. D And all those who see me, and all who believe in me, F E A share in the freedom I feel when I fly. D D/C G/B A Come dance with the west wind and touch on the mountain tops. D Bm G A Sail o?er the canyons and up to the stars. D D/C G/B D Reach for the heavens and hope for the future D/C G/B Em A and all that we can be and not we are. [Outro] E(8) E (6 fr.) E(4) E(2) E (as per the intro) [Note 1] The chords in the intro are the E shape played at various positions on the fretboard as I have named them E plus a number ? the number marks the fret that your first finger is on. E(8) E (6 fr.) E(4) E(2) E 1 E --0----0----0----0----0--| 2 B --0----0----0----0----0--| 3 G --8----6----4----2----1--| 4 D --9----7----5----3----2--| 5 A --9----7----5----3----2--| 6 E --0----0----0----0----0--| [Note 2] The song is 3/4 time but in the second half of the intro the arrangement has a 6/8 feel. For a solo guitar you can get the feel of these two rhythms like this: Standard 3/4 time ? one stress on the first beat of each bar. < < |-1-2-3-4-5-6-|-1-2-3-4-5-6-| D D U D U D U D U D U 6/8 feel ? stress on the 1st and 4th half beats of the bar. I've suggested 2 strumming The 1st is harder because you have to create the rhythm by volume on the upstroke at 4th half beat - it's easy to drift back into a 3/4 count. The 2nd strum is a little It creates the emphasis by missing out the downstroke on the 3rd beat. If you're not start with this strum and add the downstroke in as you improve. < < < < |-1-2-3-4-5-6-|-1-2-3-4-5-6-| D U D U D U D U D U D U or D U D U U D U D U U
