Eagles On the Border 1974 I guess you could call this a little
disco-country off the On the Border album. This is a
pretty cool song with a great chorus, written by my
three favorite Eagles members. So I'm gonna jam on this,
and I hope you guys do too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GUITAR 1: Electric, plays distorted parts
in intro and chorus, plus half the verse riff. GUITAR 2: Electric with a funky effect,
plays the stuff behind the verses and does the
solo. GUITAR 3: Rhythm electric playing chords
during intro and chorus, plus half of verse riff. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ INTRO: C#m B B A A

I have no idea what effect he has on there, but I think there's
a little distortion and maybe a little wah. Anywhere you see
RIFF, GUITAR 1 and 3 play the riff shown here. Cruisin down the center... RIFF + + + + + +
