Your rating:
# VICTIM OF LOVE Don Felder, Don Henley, J.D. Souther, & Glenn Frey Eagles Hotel California 1976 I had a request for this, and it is an incredibly easy song to play, so I'm gonna put it up. There are basically two guitar parts, one that plays power chords and Felder's slide guitar. Notice that Felder's guitar has the 1st string tuned dowm to D. Have fun, and good luck Chris. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GUITAR 1 is the lead guitar here, it plays the slide stuff. Tune 1st string to D, so you are tuned (low to high) EADGBd GUITAR 2 plays power chords: G5 355xxx C5 x355xx A5 x022xx Bb5 x133xx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ INTRO: G5 C5 C5 1 1 1 1 + + + + + + + + d:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| B:-----6---x-x---------------------|---------------------------------| G:-5^------x------5^-------5^~~rp3-|-5^--5---3h5---------3~----------| D:---------------------------------|-------------5~~-5---------------| A:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| E:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ G5 Bb5 A5 1 1 1 prebend 1 + + + + + + + + d:---------x-----------------------|---------------------------------| B:-----6-----x---------------------|------------------------------.--| G:-5^----------5^~~~~rp3---5---5^~~|~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-^5rp3-0--| D:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| A:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| E:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ G5 C5 C5 1 1 1 1 + + + + + + + + d:-----------x---------------------|---------------------------------| B:-----6---x------------.----------|---------.-----------------------| G:-5^----------5^~~~~~rp3----------|-5^~~rp3-5---5^~~~~~~r-----------| D:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| A:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| E:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ G5 1 1 1 + + + + + + + + d:---------x-----------------------|---------------------------------| B:-----6-----x---------.-----------|---------------------------------| G:-5^----------5^~~~~rp3---5^~~rp3-|---------------------------------| D:---------------------------------|-5~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(5)\\-| A:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| E:---------------------------------|---------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is the first verse.

It just adds the slide-downs. After this part, they add the chicka to GUITAR 2, just scratch your strings before playing the power chords. GUITAR 1 repeats this figure with the slide-downs in the second part. Some people.. I think you..

You should be home, but you're not A room full of noise and dangerous boys still makes you thirsty and hot I heard about you and that man There's just one thing I don't understand You say he's a liar and he put out your fire How come you still got his gun in your hand? Victim of love , I see a broken heart You got your stories to tell Victim of love, it's such an easy part and you know how to play it so well Some people never come clean I think you know what I mean You're walkin' the wire, pain and desire Looking for love in between Tell me your secrets, I'll tell you mine This ain't no time to be cool And tell all your girlfriends, you "been around the world" friends that talk is for losers and fools Victim of love, I see a broken heart I could be wrong, but I'm not Victim of love, we're not so far apart Show me, what kind of love have you got? Victim of love, you're just a victim of love I could be wrong , but I'm not Victim of love, now you're a victim of love What kind of love have you got? What kind of love have you got? What kind of love have you got?
