Hey Gang,

A new addition to our Eagles' library from Nesh: Train Leaves Here This Morning.


Train Leaves Here This Morning is a song recorded and performed by the Eagles. It appears on their self titled debut album (1972), and features member Bernie Leadon on lead vocals, who had written it with Gene Clark (original lead singer of the Byrds).

Even though the song seems easy to play, the lesson is still listed at an 'intermediate' level, since the progression in the key of E does include a few barre chords, making it more challenging for beginners.

Other than the chords and progression, we break down the fairly easy strumming. It moves at the speed of 8th's and should be played with swing feel.

I trust that Bernie Leadon fans appreciate the addition of this lesson to the many Eagles song lessons that we already have at Totally Guitars.
