_ _ _ The eagle looked down _ _ _ [A] on the river _ [D] below, _ _ _ and it wrapped its [A] wings around him and it
[D] fell like a [G] stone.
_ _ And the big salmon [D]
fought, _ _ _ [A] but the talons held [B] true, _ [F#] _ _ _ [G#] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [D] _
shuddered [A] as the world turned [G] from
[D] silver to blue.
_ _ _ _ I [A] stood there in [D] awe, _ _ _ though [Gm] I [A] seen it before.
[D] _ _ _
I was born in [A] these mountains, [G] I'll die here for sure. _ _ _
[A] I've traveled _ [D] around, _ _
_ [A] I've seen city [Bm] lights, _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ [D] but nothing [A] that shine like [D] the big sky at night.
[A] Some mornings I find me [D] up above the _ timberline, [G] but on some don't seem like [D] much at this time. _
_ _ When it's [A] all said [D] and done, _ _ _ [A] _ _ I usually [Bm] _ find _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [D]
me and [A] the eagle [G] are of the [D] same mind.
_ _ Now when I was young, _ _ [A] I took me a [D] wife, _ _ but she never [A] took to [D] the high [A] country life.
_ [G] _ _
So [A] now [D] I'm alone, _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ I [D] don't really [Bm] _ mind.
_ _ _ [G#m] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] [D] But her name [A] echoes down from the [G] canyon _ [D]
sometimes.
[A] Some mornings I find me [D] up above the timberline, [G] but on some don't seem like [D] much at this time.
_ _ But [A] when it's all said [D] and done, _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ I usually _ [Bm] find _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[C#m] _ _ [D] me and [A] the eagle [D] are of the same mind. _ _

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] In my dreams there's a [D] horse, _ _ [A] he stands eighteen [D] hands high. _
_ _ He's as white [A] as the snow and there's fire in [G] his eyes. _ _ _
_ And he'll bear [D] only _ me, [A] _ _ though others [Bm] have tried.
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] And together we'll [A]
travel [G] up across [D] the divide.

Some mornings I find us up [D]
above the timberline, [G] but on some don't [D] seem like much at this time.
_ _ But when it's [A] all said [D] and _ done, _ _ [A] _ _ _
I usually _ [Bm] find _ _ that _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[D] me and [A] the eagle [D] are of the same mind.
