Good tab man. I dig.

Not sure if that first comment up top was implying whoever wrote these chords was wrong but I am sitting here staring at the 1993 Eagles: Their Greatest Hits authentic guitar-tab book and these chords are dead on with the rhythm section of Take it Easy. Good job, this is perfect.

I'd like to see a better one. So far this is the best one out there. Thanks for not holding down the e and b strings at the 3rd fret like everyone else.
