  • 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.

    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.
