GUITAR 1 (12-string electric, capo on 7th fret)
A 7 means open string, so it is easier to read.
These are easier if you realize that the chords they outline are:

In all, Don Felder, Joe Walsh and Glenn Frey managed to fit eight different
guitars in for this song. GUITAR 3 plays the cool "chicka" chords you hear
during the verses. Listen closely and you can pick this part out. Use
fret-hand muting on the following chords to get the percussive sound. In
other words, don't push the strings down on the fretboard, just touch the
strings so they can't vibrate much. In addition, palm-mute them to give a
sharper sound.

GUITARS 4 and 5 (distorted electrics) play chord tones in 3rds
during the verses. GUITAR 4 plays upper voicing, GUITAR 5 plays
the lower voicing. All the while, the 12-string continues
playing the intro chords.

This is the chorus. GUITAR 1 strums the following chords
(instead of picking them):
C G B7 Em
C G Am B7
GUITAR 4 & 5 play the following bit:

Now, here's the reason for so many guitars. On the "So I called up the Captain"
verse, GUITAR 4 & 5 repeat the part from the last verse, while GUITAR 7 & 8
(distorted electrics) introduce this "answer" harmony. The 12-string is (still)
playing the verse chords.

The rest of the song repeats parts I've already tabbed. If you've
got the tape or CD, I suggest you listen to it while looking
at the tab to find these parts. Now the solos. These are tough,
so practice a lot and look at the rhythm I have laid out so you
can get a feel for how it's supposed to sound.

Wasted time
Verse 1:
C Fm6
Well, baby, there you stand
C/G F G7
with your little head down in your hand.
F Am7 Dm Am7
Oh my God, you can't believe it's happening again.
F Am7 Dm F G7
Your baby's gone and you're all alone and it looks like the end.
Verse 2:
(repeat verse 1 chords above)
And you're back out on the street
and you're tryin' to remember.
How do you start it over? You don't know if you can.
You don't care much for a stranger's touch but you can't hold your man.
Chorus:
Am E/G#
You never thought you'd be alone
G D/F#
this far down the line
F Em
and I know what's been on your mind,
Dm F G7 C
you're afraid it's all been wasted time.
Bridge:
Bm7 E7 Am
The autumn leaves have got you thinking
Bm7 E7 Am
about the first time that you fell.
Bm7 E7 Am C/G
You didn't love the boy too much, no no,
F C/G Fm6 F G G7
you just loved the boy too well____ er-well
Verse 3:
(same as verse 1)
So you live from day to day
and you dream about tomorrow, oh.
And the hours go by like minutes and the shadows come to stay.
So ya take a little something to make them go away.
Chorus:
(same as above chorus)
And I could have done so many things, baby,
if I could only stop my mind
from wond'rin' what I left behind
and from worryin' bout this wasted time.
Ab C
Ooh, another love has come and gone.
Ab C
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on.
F Am7 Dm Am7
I remember what you told me before you went out on your own:
F Am7 Dm G7
sometimes to keep it together we got to leave it alone.
Chorus:
(same as above)
So you can get on with your search, baby,
and I can get on with mine.
And maybe someday we will find
Dm F G7 C Am7 F C/G
that it wasn't really wasted time.
Ab C Am7 F C/G
Ab Fm6 C

This is the first part of the second 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.

The next chorus is the same as the first, with a slight difference at
the end to lead into the solo. Speaking of the solo, this is it:
GUITAR 1
What kind of love... got?

Then the chorus comes in again, and they do some repetitions
which are easy to figure out, and the end looks something like this:
got? What kind of love have you got?

These are the lyrics:
What kind of love have you got?
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?

Try and love again
Intro: D G D G
D
When you're out there on your own
G
Where your memories can find you
D
Like a circle goes around
You were lost until you found out
G
What it all comes down to
G Bm A7 D
One by one, the lonely feelings come
G Bm A7 D
Day by day, they slowly fade away
Ooh, the look was in her eyes
You never know what might be found there
She was dancing right in time
And the moves she made so fine
Like the music that surrounds her
Should I stay or go? I really want to know
Would I lose or win if I try and love again?
(chorus)
G D
Oh, I'm gonna try and love again
G D
Oh, I'm gonna try and love again
G D
Oh, I'm gonna try and love
(solo)
Right or wrong, what's done is done
It's only moments that you borrow
But the thoughts will linger on
Of the lady and her song
When the sun comes up tomorrow
Well it might take years to see through all these tears
Don't let go, when you find that you will know
(chorus several times and fade)
I hope that this is all correct-- I'm not sure about the Bm's.
If they don't work, try D instead.

The last resort
F Bb C
She came from Providence
C F
The one in Rhode Island
F Bb C
Where the old world shadows hang
C F
Heavy in the air
F Bb C
She packed her hopes and dreams
C F
Like a refugee
F Bb C
Just as her father came
C F F F F F+
Across the sea
She heard about a place
People were smiling
Spoke about the red man's ways
How they loved the land
They came from everywhere
To the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand
Or a place to hide
Down in the crowded bars
Out for a good time
Can't wait to tell you all
What it's like up there
They called it paradise
I don't know why
Somebody laid the mountains low
While the town got high
F F F F F+
Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm*
F F F F F+
Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm*
When the chilly winds blew down
Across the canyon
Through the canyons of the coast
To the malibus
Where the pretty people played
Hungry for power
To light their neon ways
Give 'em things to do
Some rich man came and raped the land
Nobody caught him
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes
And Jesus people bought them
They called it paradise
The place to be
They watched the hazy sun
Sinking in the sea
(Key Change: changes from F to Ab)
Ab Db Eb
You can leave it all behind
Eb Ab
Sail to Lahaina
Ab Db Eb
Just like the missionaries did
Eb Ab
So many years ago
Ab Db Eb
They even brought a neon sign
Eb Ab
Jesus is Coming
Ab Db Eb
Brought the white man's burden down
Eb Ab Ab Ab Ab Ab+
Brought the white man's reign
And we'll provide the grand design
What is yours and what is mine
'Cuz there is no more new frontier
We have got to make it here
We satisfied our endlees needs
And justified our bloody deeds
In the name of destiny
And in the name of God
And you can see them there
On sunday morning
Stand up and sing about
What it's like up there
They called it paradise
I don't know why
To call someplace paradise
Kiss it goodbye
