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
