A D Well he rides into town on the back of a big silver eagle E7 A Strapped to his shoulders are the burdens of staying on top D And the lines in his face tell the story of an uphill flight E7 A You can tell how he feels day by day by the songs that he writes D He's loved by millions somehow he's their prisoner as well E7 A As he rides down the road in his ten wheeled aluminum cell D Now he lives for the day that the eagle will carry him home E7 A 'Cause the glamour is over nearly all of his seeds have been sown D E7 A Let him go silver eagle there must be a better way to fly D E7 For this great American poet who's singing his songs A About the everyday working man's life D One night on the road just south of the Idyho line E7 A We were smoking some comtrex and attempting to alter our minds D Then just before daylight Hag pushed back his hat and he said E7 "Ah we're puttin too much emphasis on bein' a star A Can't we do a little bit of living instead" D E7 A Let him go silver eagle there must be a better way to fly D E7 For this great American poet who's singing his songs A About the everyday working man's life D E7 A Let him go silver eagle there must be a better way to fly D E7 For this great American poet who's singing his songs A About the everyday working man's life
