From: * (Joseph D. Richardson)

"Day of the Eagle" from the 1974 Chrysalis release "Bridge of Sighs" by

Notes:

 I'm not sure whether or not this is in standard tune. Listen for the
open E string in Figs A & B.  Also, I have included approximate times from
my CD player readout to make some of the lead work easier to follow.

^     - bend
r     - release bend
=     - hold note
/     - slide up
     - slide down
...   - carry over to next staff
u     - undetermined fret from which to slide up or down
(x^y) - xth fret bent to yth fret as one continuous sound

(Begin Fig. A. Play this staff 3X in the intro and once after each verse.)

  * This last phrase is for the intro and after the second verse. After the
    first verse, bend the F# to G#, release to F#, bend to G#, and follow
    with a slight tremolo bend, if you have one. Play only the E5 portion
    after the third verse.

First solo (1:56). It sounds like he has a wah rocked all the way back and
is using the tremolo (which I don't have) for much of the vibrato and bends.
This sounds very close if you are also tremolo deficient.

 This seems to be a good stopping point, although there is a cool lick
around 4:37, or so.  The recording has faded 3 or 4 dB and a second
guitar track, which was back in the mix previously, has been gaining in
volume and I think tabbing two lead guitars is rather tedious.

 Lyrics:

   I've not figured out whether this song is about religion, sexual
conquest, or law enforcement, so I may have some mistakes with the
lyrics.  Help would be appreciated.


Fig. A (intro)

Fig. B (2X)


1st verse: (beginning on 5th staff of Fig. B, second time through)

I saw a light just up ahead,
But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed.
I'm not alone and then I am.
Some people seem to think I'm Superman,
* But I watch for the love.
I'm livin' in the Day of the Eagle--
* Eagle not the ..... dove.

Fig. A (etc.)

2nd verse:

* It's like a weight that brings me down.
* If I don't move, I'm on the ground.
It's in my mind. It's in my soul.
It's telling me things that can't (be told?).
* It says "Watch for love."
I'm livin' in the Day of the Eagle--
* Eagle not the ..... dove.

First solo.

3rd verse:

Another day, another night.
* I wanna love--they wanna fight.
I need the time.
I've got to be alone.
* I've got to think it over on my own.
* But I watch for the love.
I'm livin' in the Day of the Eagle--
Eagle not the ..... dove.

"Ride out" solo over Fig. C.
