On the Border
[1974]
This is a tremendous Bernie Leadon song off On the Border. It's easy to play,
so have fun with it. The intro is the only tab I have notated, the rest is
just chords. Bernie is my favorite Eagles vocalist, even though he doesn't sing
much, so I love this song. Good luck!

Verse 1:
[F]Tell me the truth, [Fmaj7]how do you feel?
Like you're [Bb]rollin' so fast that you're [Gm]spinnin' your wheels?
[F]Don't feel too bad, you're [C]not all alone
We're [Bbmaj7]all tryin' to get alon[Gm]g
Verse 2:
With ev'rybody else tryin' to go their way
You're bound to get tripped, and what can you say?
Just go along til they turn out the lights
There's nothin' we can do to fight it
Chorus:
[Bb]No man's [C]got it [F]made
Till he's [G7]far be[Dm]yond the [Bb]pain
And [F]we who [C]must re[Dm]main
[C]Go on [Bbmaj7]living [C]just the [F]same[C]
Verse 3:
I once knew a man, very talented guy
He's sing for the people and people would cry
They knew that his song came from deep down inside
You could [Bbmaj7]hear it in his voice and [Gm]see it in his eyes[F]
And so he [Fmaj7]traveled along, [Bb]touch your heart, [Gm]then be gone
Like a [F]flower, he bloo[C]med till that old [Bb]hickory wind [Gm]called him home
Chorus:
My man's got it made
He's gone far beyond the pain
And we who must remain go on living just the same
Solo over Verse Chords
Repeat Chorus
[F]We who [C]must re[Dm]main [C]go on [Bb]laughing [C]just the [F]same
