Fight The Break Of Dawn


Eagle-Eye Cherry - Save Tonight (from the album "Desireless") Chords by Felix Oelmann (pyxis@t-online.de) Now that's what I call a beautiful song.... Eagle-Eye appeared live on the German TV-show "Geld oder Liebe" along with 2 other guitarists. Although this is not what he played, I think it's fairly correct (after all, there are just 4 chords repeated over and over) The lyrics probably need some correction, have a look for yourselves...
