Ashes The Rain and I - Waiting in the Weeds?

[sodascouts]

I was listening to James Gang Rides Again today and, as "Ashes the Rain and I" started, I was reminded of the intro of Waiting in the Weeds. Anybody else think they sound a little alike? Not a whole lot, but vaguely.

Perhaps a tad.

I have to listen Ashes The Rain and I again, lol.


EDIT: fast edit, it's sounds a little bit to Waiting In The Weeds, I agree.

Im thinking that both songs are written in minor chords and are acoustic making them sound somewhat similar. I find (IMHO) that Ashes, The Rain and I is a bit more intense and pensive sounding then Waiting in the Weeds, which has a much calmer, more settled mood. Most of the Eagles songs I have learned are written in G Am and C chords with D and Dm and F# and B# thrown in.

Waiting in the weeds is G Am C D Em and F for the most part. I was unable to find chords for Ashes, but I assume it's pretty similar. If anyone has the chords for Ashes, I'd love to see!!

I'm home now after a marathon of casino hopping out in Las Vegas and Laughlin. I may have the chords to AR&I. I'll check later. Right now, I just want to get the pictures transferred from the trip and kick back (that means SLEEP!)

Did you had fun Mike? =]
Sleep tight!
