TWENTY-ONE

Bernie Leadon

Eagles

Desperado

1973

This is the most country-like Eagles song I have. I don't know if anyone

will want to play it, but I'll do it anyway. Someday I'll have the lead guitar

part too. Have fun!

A D A6

Twenty-one and strong as I can be

A(addA) D

I know what freedom means to me

Bm E

And I can't give a reason why

D E A

I should ever wanna die

D A D A

I got no cause to be afraid

A D

Or fear that life will ever fade

Bm E

Cause as I watch the risin' sun

D E A

I know that we have just begun

G A D

A D A6

I might spend my life upon the road

A A(addA) D

Just tryin' to add to what I know

Bm E

And someday I might settle down

D E A

And all my friends will be around

And there ain't no stoppin' this young man

D A D A6

Cause I'm young and fast as I can be

I know what freedom means to me

And I can't give a reason why
