  OL' 55
  Tom Waits
  
  Eagles
  On the Border
  1974
  
  This cover of a Tom Waits ballad is so great.  Frey and Henley share
  vocals, the piano is great, and the chorus has a wonderful hook to it.
  It's really easy to play, so have fun!  A friend of mine named James
  Wiebeck sent this to me a while back, and I checked it out and put it
  up today.  Thanks, James!
