===============================================================================
I didnt tab some fills, they are variations of the intro riff, and you can easily pick
out.
Or improvise on Am pentatonic, or Am blues scale. I couldnt quite hear the second guitar
the riffs,
I couldnt tab those parts.
Thanks for checking out my tab!

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Devin Average	#1 by Devin Moreno at Sep 28, 2007 at 3:03 PM EST
	On the outside it does seem that this song is about a guy and a girl. That's what I thought at first. But the song was really written about the long-term friendship between Don Henley and Glen Frey. Weird, huh?

No Picture kyle Average	#2 by kyle burnett at Oct 1, 2007 at 4:52 AM EST
	I'm surprised no one has commented on this song yet. Perhaps that is because the song is self-explanatory. He realizes how empty his life was before he met this woman (first verse) and now he's hoping that he will make it, in the long run.

No Picture Peter Wanna Be	#3 by Peter McCarthy at Oct 3, 2007 at 4:25 PM EST
	Kind of reminds me of "Take It Easy." Just settle down a bit, look at things, and see that they're not so bad.
