Eagle On a Pole (version from self titled 1st album "Conor Oberst")

by Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley band
CAPO ON 5

This version was created by mashing up a few of the existing tabs and the

comments/corrections as well as adding a few small things that I picked up

myself. The lyrics were wrong on the other tabs also.

Most of it can be strummed and sounds pretty good if finger picking is not

your thing but I really think the Cmaj -> Em7 -> A#/Am -> Am progression in

"watched its shadow fly 'cross the cement" needs to be played with a

descending arpeggio to sound good.

Please do not assume the Am in the "El cielo es azul" progression is a typo.

I'm pretty sure the A# root note is left out from the other stanze to make

this part sound more powerful and less dissonant.

Let's define some chords. I apologize if I've used the wrong names for some

of these. If you follow these definitions I promise it will all work out.
