[Intro] E E E E [Verse 1]
E
Lord knows I am peaceful when I'm left alone

     E                           D           A      E
I've always been an eagle, been awhile since I have flown

   E
My claws are sharp as ever, so's my eagle eye

D                 A                            E
Something's gonna go to ground, when the eagle flies
[Verse 2]
E
Lately I've heard rumors 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 when I have to, they've turned the eagle loose
[Chorus]
    A                                              E
So lay all your doubts aside, when you go to bed tonight

    A                                            B
My feathers are all ruffled now, I'm ready for a fight

E
Just because I took a while to fly don't mean I don't care

         D                A                           E
When you feel the shadow crossing, the eagle's in the air
[Chorus]
    A                                              E
So lay all your doubts aside, when you go to bed tonight

    A                                            B
My feathers are all ruffled now, I'm ready for a fight

E
Just because I took a while to fly don't mean I don't care

         D                A                           E
When you feel the shadow crossing, the eagle's in the air
[Tag]
         D                A                           E
When you feel the shadow crossing, the eagle's in the air

         D                A          NC       A             E
When you feel the shadow crossing,        the eagle's in the air
